Re: Cable firms pay 5% of gross revenue

Cable modem service or internet service in general is not subject to franchise fees. This is based on a FCC ruling.

Cable TV service does pay franchise fees. And in most home/apts around here that's $50-100 a month once the deals run out. A few years ago an audit showed that TWC applied the fee incorrectly and NYC got an extra $7mill payment.
