Priceline Offers Name Your Own Price Long Distance Service
from the priceline-for-everything... dept
It seems you just can't stop Priceline. The latest area they are entering is the long distance phone market. This might not be such a bad idea. I could see certain instances when it might come in handy, but I'm not sure exactly how big a market it will be. The simple inconvenience of having to spend some time waiting to see if you can make your phone call at the approved price might prove to be a big nuisance to a lot of people.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
