Re: Odd

Maybe the telcos should stick with voice and data, and the cables companies should stick with tv delivery. And all of them stay out of content!
I bet they'd be able to do their jobs well.

Why should cable companies stick with TV delivery? TV delivery IS data in the 21st century.

Satellite receivers that cable companies use now receive MPEG4 and MPEG2 streams and can put them on an ethernet port to send them to other ethernet enabled encoding devices that send the data down to the customer.

So if they have to deliver data that happens to hold television, why should they stop there and not deliver any other data that they can?

Really makes no sense.
