But people will still jump carriers. I just signed up for AT&T's plan in September. If I'm not satisfied after I pay off the phones, I'll probably jump back to Verizon. Much more to it now than just 2 year contracts. Some people always want the latest and greatest and will buy the new phones.

Some, like me, would prefer a lower bill and buy one a model older to save $100 over the life of the contract.

some of us poor suckers have multiple family members with phones.
my 2 teenagers:
- son upgraded from myTouch (bought for $50/ea on ebay a couple years ago) to my old nexus 4 and has been loving it
- daughter upgraded from myTouch to motoG (which she recently dropped and shattered) to my OTHER nexus 4 that the wife used
- wife has a swappa iphone 5s i upgraded her to after years of trying to 'embrace' the nexus 4
- 7yo step daughter has a 'wifi only' LG leon i paid $45 for last year before my trip overseas. it was just sitting around not being used so she gets to video hangout with her dad & do lots of stuff
- i upgraded from a HTC HD2 to the nexus 4 to a cragslist nexus 5 which i'm still rocking
so in short, we aint got no new tech at my house but at $120 (after taxes) for 4 lines with tmo i'm not complaining.
