NetZero launches internet telephony service

United States based internet service provider United Online Inc. has entered the hot market of internet telephony under their popular brand name NetZero. They are making the service available this week itself and are charging nothing for it right now. However, the ability to call regular telephones would cost money as it is with other services like Skype.

The free service from the company would continue for three months after which NetZero plans to charge for it. The current prices range from the free service for limited functionality to $14.95 a month, which includes phone-to-computer calling in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. To call an international numbers, users would be paying around 2 cents a minute.

Interestingly, the service operates on any internet connection and of course, it is very cheaper when compared to traditional telephone companies. In fact, the cable operators in the USA have started offering the service to compete against telephone companies that are moving toward selling TV subscriptions through broadband.
