while speaking to the host "steve" dan says the following
9:34AM With 4G, "because we can produce a gigabyte cheaper, we can offer more to the customer."
9:35AM "It's like standard def versus high def, but with that analogy, you paid more for the better service.
With 4G, we're giving you more for free."
of course thats out of context...heres exact quote:
"4G, we can offer because we can produce a gigabyte cheaper, we actually offer more. A good analogy that has been used for 4G, and 3G, and 2G, is kind of moving from Dial-up data at home, to low speed DSL, to a cable modem and then to faster speeds. Or in TV terms, standard def versus high def, but if you looked at those models, you paid more for faster speeds. You paid more for the HD channels. In essence what we're doing with 4G is we're
throwing in the HD channels for free, because
we're not charging any more and we're giving customer's more."
