Not to mention it'll be hard for TWC to reign in their fairly independent divisions around the country to follow TWC's corporate office. TWC has been successful using its current business model where the divisions are free to set pricing and services as they see fit for their particular market.
They are addressing this problem by consolidating smaller divisions into larger ones.

Just like taxes, every time rates are increased, the amount of people willing to pay those rates decreases.

I don't see TWC just mimicking Comcast (raising rates and losing customers to FIOS and U-Verse for everyone that has the ability to switch)
