What Utility owned infrastructure? The power lines. It has been proven that internet access can be achieved over the power lines.

SoulStorm, "What Utility owned infrastructure? The power lines. It has been proven that internet access can be achieved over the power lines."

You are correct, and the Telcos and Cablecos immediately made it known that they are opposed to Utility company entry into the data, voice and content distribution industry unless some method is constructed to force Utility companies, and municipal governments with their own utility networks, to artificially inflate their retail pricing for such future services so as not to gain an "unfair" competitive advantage. Truly ironic!

So what...no company wants competition. Microsoft is opposed to Linux. Ford is opposed to GM. So what. Let them bitch.
