Mobile extras may not attract US consumers-survey

sadface.gif Telecommunications executives are banking on big revenue increases during the next few years from new mobile phone services, but getting customers to pay more may not be so easy, according to a report released on Monday, reports Reuters.

"More than a third of North American consumers surveyed said they would not pay a premium for music and video downloads, according to the report by audit, tax and advisory firm KPMG LLP.

Further underscoring that point was that 20 percent of mobile device users said they would pay no more than 10 percent above their current bill."

Never say never is what I say, I really hate these downer reports.
