»Comcast: The Pipe And The ContentAdvertising represents just 10% of Comcast's revenues
That number is around 4.5%, not 10% based on 2007 1st qtr numbers.
Revenues: Video $4,362 High-speed Internet 1,527 Phone 353 Advertising 313 Other 242 Franchise fees 201 Total Revenues $6,998 In any case, I agree with those that say Comcast should skip the web portal business. Others do it much better and providing their own is a waste of money.

I'm sure they scares their senior management. |

Only a dumb pipe for Internet revenues. Most of their earnings still come from their video/TV business which is all content. So the dumb pipe argument only applies to a relatively small part of their total revenues. -- -- Internet News My BLOG My Web Page |

We seem to be heading to an "on-demand" model which could dramticly reduce traditional advertising revenue. I suspect Comcast sees this coming as well. |

Good point. Now and 10 yrs from now can be very different playing fields. -- -- Internet News My BLOG My Web Page |
