Re: And I Suspect..

"They have a pipe that sucks."

How so? or did that just sound good?

"Comcast has their head between their knees at that time, like they did today."

Pouring it on a little thick today, huh? The amount of subs lost, today, was nothing.

Sprint lost millions of subs and they're still alive. As much as people love to root for companies "to die" many of them won't as you hope. Further, the "die" mentality only shoes one's ignorance in the market place. Sure, let's have all the companies we hate DIE.. and when you get the choices down to a small few, what do you think will happen to the price of the service at your favorite company? They're going to start going up.. but fortunate for many, you'll have someone new to hate again.

A subscriber loss is not the end of the world.. it happens. Some people need to stop their side job of analysist and leave that to those that understand business.

You are right about one thing.. they're going to need more than DOCSIS 3.0 to compete with the future.. um, duh?! Obvious statement. DOCSIS 1.1 and 2.0 was great until Verizon launched fiber (even though other companies were doing it for years albeit a smaller scale) but people like you seem to think that DOCSIS 3.0 is the end of the line.
