Re: Hopefully this forces some changes
Problem with that is it's considered predatory pricing since it's only being offered in the one area. Comcast is basically the only cable game in town next to the muni, so if Comcast is undercutting the competition with the intent of running the competition out of business that's an anti-trust violation.
It's one thing when you have true competition over extended markets, but this isn't it. Do you want to know what's going to happen once the muni is run out of business? Prices will go back up again. Probably even higher than before. This isn't the way to assure a free market. |

"Comcast is offering its customers a 16-month discount on a combination digital TV and high-speed Internet package that would cut its usual price of $97 a month to $52."

How can you say it's already happening when you said it "needs" to happen? What exactly is happening in your community? |
