Re: AT&T didnt Compete

said by NewMariner See Profile :

At&t didnt compete with Bellsouth. Thats why the merger went through. It didnt reduce the number of companies providing service. Comcast wants to buy out the competition. Thus, reducing the number of providers...
And Comcast doesn't compete with TW, Charter or Cox. Hardly anyone lives in an area where there are 2 cable companies. Comcast competes with DirectTV which is allowed to have more than 30% of the TV market. If DirectTv had 50 million subscribrs would the FCC be stepping in and preventing that? No. If at&t or verizon had 50 million Tv subscrinbers would the FCC be trying to stop that? No. So exactly what is the difference?

Re: AT&T didnt Compete

The difference is: They are Telcos, and Charter is a Cable Co.

Which is to say, none really. Except: Martin's bias.
