OTT applications are a concern for many telcos, simply because they eat into their traditional revenue - when people use apps like LINE which offer free calls and free messaging, then SMS revenue is expected to go down. For example, Indosat’s SMS revenue stream has seen a slight decline, but it has also seen an uptick in mobile data subscriptions.<p><code><br/></code></p> </span>[/peekaboo_content]</td>
