In some states, the competitive and incumbent phone carriers bill each 
other for calls that they terminate from the other. If a Qwest customer 
calls a Dave's Phone Company customer, I will get a small amount of money 
per minute for completing the call. Some states are bill and keep, meaning 
no one gets paid. ISP's loved it when they could set up as a CLEC and put 
their modem banks on their own switch, because they are terminating all of 
these calls and getting paid per minute from the ILEC to do so. The FCC 
let the ILEC's not pay reciprocal comp for those calls.
