why should they be favored?

it's not clear why frontline should be favored regardless of their plan.

I do agree it is not likely the FCC will actually do anything that really benefits consumers. If this auction doesn't have protections to ensure the incumbents don't gobble everything up, broadband in the U.S. is going to be screwed for a long time.

Re: why should they be favored?

So long as the consensus is to let the market play out everytime this is exactly where we end up. Those that have the most to gain, who not so coincidentally have large amounts of cash to throw at the problem (generated of course from the stranglehold on the same market), just perpetuate themselves.

Whats left after 700mhz spectrum to provide a broadband platform?

wimax over 3g? BPL? A competitive cable market (LOL)?
