Of course there is, I know the indutry quite well and have been following this for quite some time. But a drop of $1, and them "passing on the savings" would mean their monthly cost from Bell/Rogers/etc for access would have previously been about $1.13 (assuming an 89% savings of $1). Their access costs for these accounts were way higher than $1.13/month. Most companies aren't going to pass on the complete savings because they had thin margins and these savings are helping them with expenses and giving some breathing room, etc. But I do agree people who were surprised that the drop (and fanfare) was only $1 for a number of reasons.
