If you are using VoIP over the Internet, you can't demand nor expect
guaranteed quality of service, period. Neither you nor your provider 
control all of the path between you.

If you agree to pay 3-5c/minute, and you have reasonable volume to justify 
a PRI circuit, just get one from a carrier like XO, their retail rate is 
4c/minute for termination.
