But then again, on the other side of the coin you have FORTY times more customers paying for their service
Do you even bother to look up stats before you try to mock someone and fail hard at it? US population is around 314 million according to wiki. UK is over 62 million. If you can do math, which i really doubt you can, that means the US has only 5 times as many people as the UK.
So i get FORTY times the space to use my phone and it's being paid for by only FIVE times as many people and I only pay TWO times as much so that makes my deal FOUR times better than the crap they serve up in the UK.

I believe I was supporting your views... I was disagreeing with the person who said comparing the US to EU was an unfair comparison, while supporting that the same market can be reached here in the States.
In other words, he was saying that US is 40 times larger and of course we as American should be "happy" that we are not paying 40 times the price that the British, Norwegians, or Swedes are paying. I was arguing that while there is definitely a larger area for coverage, it is backed by the much larger customer base (once again using the number 40 times as many PAYING customers) who provide income for the companies to expand their network.
40 times larger space but only 5 times larger customer base. Looks like the US gets the MUCH better deal! Thanks for proving my point while trying to mock me instead!!
