| Cherry pick?
quote: Like AT&T, Qwest has been busy trying to eliminate local franchise obligations, which would allow them to cherry pick the most profitable areas - pleasing investors, but obviously leaving coverage gaps when it comes to next-generation broadband and IPTV services.
What is Seattle doing if not cherry picking? What is the TV franchise situation in Seattle? I'll bet Seattle gives themselves a franchise as of yesterday. A franchise agreement that tells the people in the woods to go pound salt.
Why can a government give its self a better deal they it gives private business? Seattle should spell out what deal it will give its self and have to offer the same deal to Quest.
People talk out of two different orifices when it comes to municipal broad band. If it is good for the government it is good for business.
How is municipal broad band going to help you people in the woods? If the cities cherry pick the profitable areas you are going to be on dial-up forever. |

| Why do you say that? Change like this comes little steps at a time. You have to push them to get them to move.We here out in the woods might not see it as fast as the city does but for sure wont see it until the city does. Lets get it here then lets see what becomes available to us. I have seen a lot of changes going on in the past months and I feel by this time next year some ISP's better get a move on. We here out in the woods see it last, and that's ok for now but looking at the big picture and thinking of volume. I am not going to feel one bit sorry for those that drag there heals when they start to lose customers. I like the title to this topic " Give it up or Get out of my way" I can't wait until I'm in a position I can say that. |
