Available Revenue Time

In the wireless industry, available revenue time (ART) is the amount of user time available from which mobile carriers may generate revenue. For example, using a wireless mobile device for 60 minutes has enabled the carrier on whose telecommunications network the user's device is operating to generate revenue for 60 minutes. Revenue is typically generated by billing for services such as SMS, mobile video, mobile TV, or other multi-media options typical in modern convergent devices.

    “If you tax too high, the revenue will yield nothing.”

    “In the range of things toddlers have to learn and endlessly review—why you can’t put bottles with certain labels in your mouth, why you have to sit on the potty, why you can’t take whatever you want in the store, why you don’t hit your friends—by the time we got to why you can’t drop your peas, well, I was dropping a few myself.”
    —Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
