Not having a gym membership, I will take your word for that...

Pre-pay has pretty much everything to do with ability to obtain credit, which has decreased dramatically lately and why consumers are moving to it. As well as the ability to get a much lower monthly payment for simpler services which is again where consumers are moving. Telcos love it, since it virtually eliminates any credit risk exposure and they can factor revenue streams if needed in the high 90's.
