The American wireless industry is overdue for a shakeup. The MetroPCS merger is one step in the right direction.
The wireless industry in America is ruled by AT&T (T 0.19%), Verizon (VZ 0.03%), and a handful of much smaller networks fight for scraps from the ruling duo's table. A wave of consolidation can change all of that.
In this video, Fool contributor Anders Bylund explains why MetroPCS (TMUS 0.19%) merging with T-Mobile USA is good for both consumers and the industry at large -- though he's actually more interested in what will become of third-largest service provider Sprint Nextel (S).
