End of the Landline: BT Aims To Move All UK Customers To VoIP by 2025
BT aims to move its UK customers to IP telephony by 2025. From a report: BT is shutting its traditional telephone network in the UK, according to an email seen by The Register. The public switched telephone network (PSTN) closure is part of the company's plans to move in a fibre network direction in terms of its infrastructure.

BT Openreach runs the network used by all but one of the telecoms providers in the UK.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
