And that's just what they don't want to give you...

... they want to force you to buy PayTV and POTS and other stuff to get "deals" and now they want to cap/limit/meter the internet....

Lack of competition is grand.

All of them (cable/telco) have fixed amounts of profit on Telco and TV service.
Internet has a bit more variance:
1. Can they cap your service (more profit)
2. Backbone cost variance
3. Money making from alliances (NebuAd, content providers) and user data
4. Preventing non alliances (Netflix, Bittorrent)

TV/Telco service are not developing products... outside of HD and VoIP itself, what is new on TV? DVR isn't much.

As the Internet matures, I suspect all major carriers would rather sell a 'portal' than a bare bones ISP.
