Fresh Meadows, NY | Anti-competition I think that the logic of some of this sites readers is crazy. Verizon is asking the government to enforce fair competition in the cable markets plain and simple. The idea of competition is to provide better service and keep the rates for service lower than in non competitive markets. Verizon is not asking for MSG HD for free they are willing to pay market price. Cablevision is refusing simply to be anti-competitive. So by some of the poster's logic should Verizon pull the plug on the fiber optic cables feeding the Cablevision buildings that transmit video signals, of course not because then Verizon would be anti-competitive. Cablevision pays Verizon the market price for the fiber optics. |
