Off to go digging, listen to this:
Q. WILL INTERNET PHONE SERVICES RUIN
THE LONG DISTANCE INDUSTRY?
No. Internet phone technology is still far beyond the reach of the average consumer, or business. It will be quite some time before it captures a signifigant[sic] portion of long distance revenues. Still, eventually the technology will improve, and more people will begin to utilize it. Smart agents and resellers will view this as an OPPORTUNITY, rather than as a threat. Companies such as AT&T and Pacific Bell are already selling internet access to their customers. Forward looking companies and agents will offer internet access, in addition to traditional long distance service. This will give consumers a choice of transmission methods, and will assure continued patronage, regardless of method of long distance access.
