Stupid network operators

So network operators want to run streaming radio over their networks!?! Mon dieu! This is so wrong, it's hard to know where to start.

Firstly, there's a free alternative called, um, radio. And then there's this popular little device which I believe is called an iPod that lets you listen to music you actually like without any adverts. Remarkable what technology can do!

So you're burning up your spectrum on value-less content. The user, on the other hand, is massacring her battery life, and possibly running up a huge bill -- which will cause her to churn.

Does anyone at the operators know how to read?
