Just look at the various network voice calling software and services available later, even though network telephony for personal users is mostly free or very low-cost.
However, for corporate users, IP telephony has its own market, especially in North America and Europe, where IP telephony is widely used.
This is closely related to the geographical and international environment of the western world; multinational companies based in North America typically first expand into Europe.
If a company needs to conduct international meetings internally, that's when IP telephony's conference calling comes into its own.
Of course, with the current network environment, achieving this might be a bit difficult.
But this time won't be too long, at most two years, and the prevalence of the network will grow exponentially.
