Re: UKNM: International Competitions

[Dan Leighton]

cos some (but by no means all) ISPs get a revenue share on telephone

calls to their services.


hence, people like freeserve can justify being free.


it is, i think, spurious to suggest that because you pay your telephone

bill you are paying an entrance fee to a competition (unless the

competition is being run by the ISP).  That is like saying that cos you

paid a bus fare you are entitled to free entrance to the cinema...
