The triple play is meaningless. Comcast tries to sell me on that every time I call for something. Their sale price is $33, Vonage regular price is $15. Comcast has no intention on being competitive.
They aren't trying to compete with an inferior product. The cable VoIP (digital phone) offering is a much more mature, stable, product than Vonage. They are trying to compete with POTS.

Instead of asking me to do your research for you, how about you put the lazy pipe down and go read the technical docs on why the MSOs digital phone product is superior to VoIP ... especially the part that requires them to register as a CLEC to meet certain regulations ... and then the part about the difference in the VoIP packets traveling over a private QoS controlled network vs. the public internet.

That should get you started.

Around these parts, SUPERIOR means CHEAPER.. I don't think I will ever conform to that standard of thinking. (Now before the opportunistics jump on this, more expensive doesn't mean better either)

He also forgets when your DSL or Cable Modem goes down, so does your vonage. I mean, the arguments around here area generally always held on the surface and never get deep enough to matter. There is much more to "technology" and "excellence" than just things like price and "I hate comcast" (or insert name of cable company here)

MSOs do not have to register in Ohio as a CLEC.

If they want to offer phone service, yes they do. They have to meet the same requirements as a CLEC as an ILEC does.

See the following:

NO they don't. Ohio calls them a VoIP provider. They do not have to follow CLEC laws.

Cause if they did TWC Ohio would provide battery backup which they DO NOT. Also CLECs are required by Law in Ohio to have the Lifeline program which TWC does NOT have.

Cable Information LLC is their holdings company. If you did not know that. Many large companies do have LLCs where they put all of their assets. This is because if they are sued nobody can touch those assets.

Also do you believe everything you read?
