Why does anybody pay for cell phone service? Internet calls are free. Also, printers? It is the 21st century, people.

My internet service comes through my cellphone. Beats dialup which is my other option.
I’m not saying there are not use cases for cell phones or printers, but most people could cut their usage by 80% by just thinking about it.
Internet is not free. You may be finding it free of charge to you, but it’s not free. It’s also spotty as far as availability, even in cities. Being unable to call or receive calls because you’re not in a free wifi hotspot is not practical for most. And, there are some things that cannot be migrated to a web page, PDF, etc., not at the present time and not in the foreseeable future.
So, if you’re able to make do with VOIP, Skype or whatever to cover your need for voice communications, great, good for you. It’s by no means applicable to even a majority though, let alone everybody.
