4 edits		 Because it's not necessary (unless you're talking about number porting to cable in which case they already do, I went through it with TWC and Cox from Verizon and then Pacbell)

You have to with number porting because you can't have 2 providers stuck with the same phone number, there has to be a hand off. It's a technical limitation. You can have FiOS TV and Cable TV at the same time or DSL and Cable HSI at the same time.
