MovieFone, AOL and Level3

MovieFone, which provides movie listings by web site and phone across the USA will be using the Level3 inbound calling VoIP platform to make it easy, and now less costly when consumers want to know "what's playing."

I expect this to be the first of a flurry of announcement by Level3 and other VoIP carriers that signify the shift to VoIP for service related calling. Airlines, hotels, car rental companies, pharmcuitical formularies for pharmacy drug plans and others, espcially, those using Interactive Voice Response (IVR), will take advantage of the cost savings and ease of deployment now available to them from companies like Level3 that can both manage their services and provide them a softswitch enabled network.
