Yes. I put it like this:  VoIP makes *you* look bad to other people,
some who may have no idea of what VoIP is or why you are even using it.
If you don't care about what those people think of you then go ahead and
use it. ;-)

It's not the amount bandwidth so much as it's the consistency of the
bandwidth, latency, and jitter, as well as the general lack of the
latter two.
