I don’t see it as a beginning to an end, it’s an enhanced option for a low cost data plan. Ala Carte if you will, the consumer may just do a bulk of their data use on something like Facebook and minimally for other uses. Why pay for a whopping big data plan when you may not need it. Get a decent base price program and then bump up where you want it. This may work well for audio in the car. Should be cheaper than Satellite radio. Don’t vilify something like this, if it becomes more commonplace carriers on any type of network may be able to increase their ARPU for low data use customers by changing their billing model.
You don’t go to a fast food restaurant and pay one price for access to the menu by weight knowing you cannot eat all that weight, you just buy what you need. The video content companies need to go to this eventually to stem the massive erosion of the cable video subscribers, but they are going to milk that cash cow as long as they can.
