I call it the 4th and final wave of (broadband) IP digitization. The first 3 waves were the WAN (mid 1980s), data/internet (early 1990s), and wireless (mid 1990s). The 4th wave will follow similar patterns. On the demand or uptake side there are 3 forms of pricing elasticity as prices drop to reflect marginal costs. The first is normal elasticity (more users and usage). The second is private to public (high volume users will return from public monopoly networks they fled.
