A network clearly needs to be designed to meet user performance requirements for a wide variety of applications. In a commercial setting, Return on Investment (RoI) must be covered by the price users pay for the services provided by the network. It matters whether the investment is just in an amount of commodity infrastructure or also in complex value-added services justifying a higher profit margin. Quality-of-Service (QoS) is often seen as the basis for such added value. We discuss the issue of RoI and consider the complementary role of pricing as a QoS mechanism.
