We argue that some form of graduated prices are required in order for any multiclass service discipline to have the desired effect. Moreover, we demonstrate through simulation that it is possible to set the prices so that eery user is more satisfied with the combined cost and performance of a network with graduated prices. .... Thus, prices allow us to spread the benefits to multiple service classes around to all users, rather than just having these benefits remain exclusively with users who are performance sensitive.
