Since everybody has their own wifi it seems that federating all of them for pretty good coverage by a provider and charging a nominal fee to manage it would suit a lot of people needs. It doesn't need expensive spectrum and the real estate is "free". Basically a federation of "guestnets".

Which is pretty much what Xfinity is already offering to their subscribers; use your xfinity login to get onto the wifi access points of other xfinity users all around the country, relatively seamlessly.
I'm sure other networks that provide their own CPE are likely to follow suit as well.
