Re: Cable Competition in Qwest Territory?

Of course they've got competition from cable. But thankfully for the players involved, duopolies usually don't spark heated service/price wars. Plus when Comcast (among others) charge $70~$80mo for their higher tiers, it really doesn't change the landscape much. Quest is playing it smart.

But what happened with Verizon and FIOS disproves this. In many Verizon service areas where DSL wasn't available, the cable companies were literally killing Verizon... until Verizon deployed FIOS. So there was at least competition related to service.
