Cox is private. If you sue Comcast, prepare to find yourself under an irrelavent anti-trust investigation quickly. When billionaires/millionaries/inventment banks/hedge funds get angry at you, it doesn't matter what company you are. They know enough connections to kill you instantly, or the CEO gets fired by the board with no comment.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19965798 Sat, 09 Feb 2008 20:18:07 EDT Re: VZ better make all its arguments the same http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19965508 ChrisXP :

Comcast is too big for Verizon to take on even if they are even slightly infringing. comcast probally has the money to simply buy Verizon if they wanted.
At the rates they charge each month for cable and internet? The whole industry!

I thought there was suppose to be competition. Only other cable provider in my area doesn't even have a line out here.

No competition, no lower rates. Customers screwed.

Heck, we're screwed as guess who'll have to pay for these lawsuits? :mad:

[65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19963176 Sat, 09 Feb 2008 12:05:37 EDT VZ better make all its arguments the same http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19962783 supergirl : I think they'll lose against Charter and Cox. Wonder if VZ sues all the cable outfits within the next few months? Cox is going to be a brawl so I'm sure suing Comcast would be a war. Cox has money; sure Comcast is analyzing these lawsuits.

The suit against Cox raises the question of whether Verizon will go after other Cable MSOs in court as well. "They all adhere to the CableLabs PacketCable architecture," says Alan Breznick, senior analyst with Heavy Reading. "So conceivably they could."

PacketCable is a CableLabs-led initiative to develop interoperable interface specifications for delivering advanced, real-time multimedia services over two-way cable plant. Built on top of the industry's highly successful DOCSIS® cable modem infrastructure (version 1.1 or greater), PacketCable networks use Internet protocol (IP) technology to enable a wide range of multimedia services, such as IP telephony, multimedia conferencing, interactive gaming, and general multimedia applications. Working with CableLabs member companies and technology suppliers, the PacketCable project addresses issues such as device interoperability and product compliance with the PacketCable specifications.

While no CableLabs member company is obligated to purchase PacketCable-compliant products, it is anticipated that the majority of network components purchased will be PacketCable compliant.
