The fact that they all came out and made sure the plans that were offered were exactly the same is a bit sketchy.

8/$50 is cheaper but not necessarily better.
People were waiting on hold for hours, threat of cancelling subscriptions was almost non-existant because even if you cancelled there was no guarantee you'd be able to get into the new plan or get your number ported over. Why would any of the big 3 drop to a slightly better offer? If they matched they keep their client base. There'd be so few people that would have changed phones/companies to save $10 a month and get 2 less gigs it wouldn't even be worth it. That's not necessarily collusion that's just knowing what your competition is doing.
