[Asterisk-biz] international voip rate question

[Michael Giagnocavo]

Seriously, if your wholesaler is charging double 5c to Russia... find a new
wholesaler. Now, if it's just your personal calls, don't think about it :).
If you're actually running a VoIP company and someone's charging 10c to
Russia wholesale... time to start looking.

I'd think for some areas of Russia (say, Moscow), the big calling card
companies are paying probably around $0.006/minute.

I missed this before I posted my last message.  That explains why the
poor quality on the cheapest calling cards.
