| 30 years vs. 2 years
It took over 30 years for cable to reach its current penetration rate. 348,000 subs in just a couple of years for FiOS is a pretty reasonable hit rate.
When I got cable in 1972, we were the first sub on our street. The second sub didn't come online for another year. Of course, there was no sports salary greed and box office greed then like there is today. (No HBO, No ESPN)
Don't let the short termers get hung up on near term subs. |
