Re: Lesson Learned

said by pnh102:

Instead of these ISPs paying their competitor more than what they would charge their own customers for service, they should have gone and built their own network.
yes yes because cities want 50 diferenet companies tearing up people's property. No the lesson learned is the republican controled Supreme Court once again is in the pockets of corporate America.

The court case didn't prove that AT&T's pricing violated monopoly laws.

Period.

They can price the product however they like. The market determines how much consumers are willing to bear that price.

AFAIK, many, many ISP's sell their service over another provider line.

Bundled packages from providers always seem to cost more. I'm not sure where the allusion that 'going dry' actually costs you more at the end of the month.

I've had separate cable and VOIP for years now and I pay much less than the one provider, phone, internet, cable bundle. Much less

Unanimous decision. Take your partisan blinders off.

Interesting. I am not aware that SCOTUS is controlled by any political party. Such control would be a violation of the U.S. Constitution. And the Democratic senate, under Bush, refused to approve of any Bush appointees to SCOTUS for a long time.

I detect some futile partisan ranting here.

Really. Nice talking point. The same theory that talking point comes from also assumes open competition and no barriers to entry. Yeah, RIGHT.

Railing against a 'republican controled' (your misspell) court when the decision was unanimous is fail.
