Re: Hopefully this forces some changes

I'm not phased by this, if a MUNI can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen... this is COMPETITON, if the services are compared apples to apples, price alone is not the determining factor, Quality of Service is. That's why people are more loyal in the long run to companies that provide a real track record of doing right by the consumer. Having a superior transmission medium (fiber) would be helpful too!

Re: Hopefully this forces some changes

When "competition" becomes predatory in their business practices it's called anti-trust. If Comcast is showing itself to do these things to drive out the only competition in that area you can be sure it will be called illegal.
