Re: Competition.....

Actually, in San Diego county many areas can be served by two different (might even be three in a few areas! we've got RR, COX, and Adelphia around here) cable providers.

Major MSOs competing with one another is highly unusual. (That said, I've heard of it happening in very isolated instances -- back before Comcast bought AT&T Broadband, in one part of Atlanta there was something like 25 houses on a street that straddles a county line that could choose from either one.)

Re: Competition.....

There was actually a news story on our local news channel about how some areas of san diego have cable competition, which is rare in the US.
