When a Verizon tech went into someones house last month.. removed a Comcast cable modem and 3 set-top boxes, that wasnt a LOSS for Comcast? Interesting.
This didnt happen once though. It happened a thousand times. Last quarter Vz added 300k video subs. According to you, Comcast didnt lose any customers or any other cable company for that matter, please tell me where these 300k subscribers came from. Actually... dont... because this is just a glass half empty or half full argument.
I didn't write the article or the numbers.. but thank you for making this about me and not the article.. or did you not read?
Let me recap for you:
Comcast CEO Brian Roberts told investors at a Sanford Berstein conference today in New York City that the company was still struggling with the recession and slow housing boom. "Were really not seeing a surging of disconnects," notes Roberts. "Were just not seeing a surging of orders, he says. While Comcast still had a pretty spectacular first quarter in terms of earnings and subscriber additions, the company says they're seeing some slowdowns as we move through the second quarter. According to Roberts, "there are just less opportunities to sell new things right now."
