You do realize if there isn't a merger within a few years one if not both will be out of business anyways. Then what will happen to prices?
So what? Prices will be an non-issue then. If they can't survive in the market they chose, then their business models were flawed from the beginning.

My point was if one did happen to survive then the so called price protection of "competition" would be gone anyways. This is one of the few circumstances where a monopoly would not necessarily mean higher prices.

A merged company would still have to abide by the market. If they price their radios and subscription fees to high then people would look for other sources for radio because they do exist.
