Not surprised

How could the telcos spend all that money, price it lower ? They would have to recoup the cost somehow and keeping the price close to or the same as cable is the way...

Re: Not surprised

They can't! ... and the guy's right.. there is going to be no price wars. The biggest fact that people forget is that the networks set most of the prices.. the rest of the real world and market dictate the remaining small portion of the price. The cost of gas, insurance, labor, etc. dictate the rest. Then let's not forget that they need extra money for continued re-investment.

This is why you see about $5 or abouts difference in price.
