Re: It would be beneficial to buy someone...

No offence but your only dreaming if you think any of that would happen.

Here is how the reality of it will most likely go.
Comcast will keep pricing right where it is.
They will wait a while then raise rates, after all, some one has to pay for this acquisition.
The 99 cents surcharge on VOD will stay as it will be a new revenue stream.
Then another raise in rates blaming the other content providers while acting innocent.
Then yet another raise in rates for content providers raising their rates in retaliation for Comcast raising the rates on NBC for them.

Or shutdown Hulu completely and make everyone go through Fancast. There's duplicate content available on both Fancast and Hulu already.
