Re: That company is finished

Actually, they sold many of the less competitive markets in their deal with the newly-formed company Windjammer Cable. So, the markets Time Warner retained are in regions where there is more competition than they'd probably like. I suspect, if they aren't careful, their decision to not broadly deploy DOCSIS 3.0 may ultimately cost them market share. Unfortunately for them, dragging their feet until they see market share losses may mean permanent loss of customers and revenue--definitely a slippery slope and one that may ultimately lead to Time Warner Cable becoming a target for acquisition itself. If I were a shareholder in this company, I'd definitely consider selling if they don't get their act together with in the next 2-3 quarters.

·WOW Internet and..

TWC kept systems where it made sense. They control Ohio- TWC NEO, Mid-Ohio, and Cinci and Dayton areas. Where most of MidOhio and Dayton was Western Ohio. and Mid-Ohio was Columbus. You can't forget they picked up EVERY Adelphia system in Ohio as well.

I couldn't see TWC selling any system in Ohio. And Ohio doesn't even have FiOS and U-Verse is very limited in the cities it's in. So really' they have no worries here.

Couldn't have said it better myself. The Ohio market will be the last to see any change. There is no state wide competition here.

As far as what i said about them selling systems in Ohio. They did. They sold off a few systems to Windjammer The first part of the year. It was put on the Help.rr.com page.

But they also kept ALL of the other money making markets.
