EU telecom operators plan to impose network fees on metaverse streaming, but Meta and others are against it.
EU lawmakers are exploring the future of network funding and have not decided on the network fee proposal.
Meta believes the network fee proposal is built on a false premise and undervalues CAPs' contribution.
- The metaverse adoption will primarily be dominated by VR, which the existing infrastructure can serve.
- FTTH/B deployment can upgrade Europe's fixed network capacity and is sufficient for the metaverse's supply and demand.
- AR is a proposed possibility in the metaverse but requires more research and development.
