The blame game or fan boy comments do not serve any purpose at all. The fact of the matter is that MS is caught between a rock and a hard place. They needed the carriers so badly that they could not dictate the terms of the relationship. They could not get what they knew they needed. As a result they had to cede control and is now paying a price for it.
Ultimately this is caused by lack of vision/direction and coming late to the party on MS's part.
Them's the breaks.
