As I'm sure you're aware, the FCC's compensation scheme does not in any way relate to the media over which calls are delivered.

Unfortunately that is not the case. Just google for PVU and PIU.
I would disagree with this assessment. PVU and PIU do not relate to the way in which we interconnect. In fact, the Court has weighed in years ago re: "IP in the middle" for AT&T. The fact that IP is used somewhere in the middle of the call changes nothing. What PIU/PVU are designed to address is (in theory) end-points. While we can argue all day long over the relevance of end-point technology, the regulators appear to have opened that door. They have not, IMO, opened the door to "IP in the middle" making a difference. -jbn
