Hi Tim
The best place to go is Geoff's own website <http://www.potaroo.net/> One of his articles does talk about the money shift from the carriers to content service providers. For those who attended his (and my_ session in the APrIGF in Tokyo, this was exactly what he said. (He then spend a bit of time over a breakfast with me the next day, further explaining it.) I"m sure he'd be happy to elaborate.
