In this instance the user (B) who subscribes to the service is also the one getting (at least part of) the value (2.59 cent/min).  In the previous ENUM example, user B subscribes to ENUM, but it is user A (or the carrier) who receives the benefit of cheaper calls.

Well, that's like in the "traditional" domain space - it is the equivalent 
of you paying for a domain name which points on your web server, so that 
others can visit your site (for free). In either case, you pay for the 
facility which allows others to address you ...

(ok, there's a minor difference with ENUM as you can still use the PSTN)
