Market analysts expect even this low cost to drop over time as technology improves and competition thickens. As the entire communication is over the Internet, governments have not taxed VoIP phone services and the only tax you pay on your VoIP phone service provider's bill is a federal excise tax, which is a meager 3% on the cost of the services.
