The hidden costs of "free" mobile video

http://j.mp/K9wDqe  (Forbes)

   "Will you care that Verizon has positioned itself as the video
    gatekeeper-able to charge a toll to any content aggregator, content
    producer or app maker who wants to be included in viewdini? Will you
    feel bad for mom-and-pop content players who can't afford to pay
    Verizon and end up with a smaller audience?"
