Death Valley, CA | Which war do you want? Price, Speed, or Reliability? When broadband first started over a decade ago you paid $50 for 1Mb service. Prices have stayed flat while speed and reliability have increased.
Although free 7x24 symmetrical 100Mbps is a grand goal for all of us consumers to wish for, I think a price war is not very realistic. |

Bradenton, FL | Your not just paying for just speed but for content also. What does AT&T offer that's so great, nothing. They should stick with providing speed and leave the content to the experts. |

So Apple should stay away from mp3s and stick to Macs
Verizon / Telco shouldn't go into TV
Cable shouldn't have done triple play
Level3 shouldn't have gone in the CDN business
google should stay away from cell phones
dslreports.com should only talk about DSL
etc...
Keep with the ONE thing you want vs. the areas that are good for the bottom line of the business.

Keep with the ONE thing you want vs. the areas that are good for the bottom line of the business. My logic is there should be balance. You start taking away the balance, then you lead to anticompetitive behavior and lack of choice.
What if Comcast started doing what Verizonwireless does, you could only get content through Comcast? If you wanted to download and pay for music, you have to go through Comcast? You could only use a Comcast approved browser and OS to access the internet?
Granted in the music player business you have choice, on the other hand in a lot of areas you only have 1 ISP provider.
1) So Apple should stay away from mp3s and stick to Macs
Apple is good at making laptops, desktops and Ipods. Should stick with what your good at.
2) Verizon / Telco shouldn't go into TV
Again, they stick with speed and not content.
3) Cable shouldn't have done triple play
Has nothing to do with the subject at hand
4) Level3 shouldn't have gone in the CDN business
Don't have enough info about this to make a statement
5) google should stay away from cell phones
Google is doing a good job working with companies like Verizon to put Google on cellphones. Creating a Google phone, no.
6) dslreports.com should only talk about DSL
Again, has nothing to do with the subject at hand. DslReports offers up content not hardware and content. You don't see a DslReports cellphone? |
