I've always found VPLS to be a bit of a hammer (in the 
majority of cases, customers really needed l3vpn, and were 
merely attracted to the buzz that is MPLS and all its 
cousins).

Broadband aggregation backhaul and 3G/4G backbone platforms 
is where I thought VPLS was probably sensible, i.e., as a 
backbone feature and not really as a service to customers. 
But Pseudowire Subscription gives me goose bumps :-).
