AT&T Admits There's No Spectrum Crisis

You'll recall that during their bid to acquire T-Mobile, AT&T repeatedly insisted that there was a terrible spectrum crunch afoot, and they simply would not be able to deploy LTE nationally without gobbling up a major competitor. Roughly a year later and, as we illustrated yesterday, AT&T has shown that they didn't need T-Mobile at all, and was perfectly able to go out and get the spectrum they needed elsewhere. AT&T has completed more than 40 spectrum deals in one year, showing there's really nothing deep pockets can't fix.

It was more that acquiring T Mobile was an easier way to deploy LTE in a quick manner...but they really didn't need to and I think it was the better move overall. T Mobile is a mess my buddy has them in Chicago and I literally had to hang up with him 6 times cause his phone would cut out
