Why Comcast should strictly be data transport only

Comcast should only be in the business of maintaining local cable plants and maintaining local cable plants only. Anything beyond the local cable plant (headend) should be third parties. Just like in the post 1984 Bell Breakup the RBOCs were forced to allow third parties to provide long distance. Maybe even a breakup of Comcast should force them to sell off the CMTSs and the third party ISPs could place their own CMTSs in the headend like the CLECs can have space in a ILEC central office.

They "allow" resellers on their terms in select areas. So helpful.
