| Re: No I don't care to bundle services just for the sake of having one larger bill.
I find it difficult to believe the cable co's just finished spending $2.4 billion on spectrum at the auction but have so little interest in having a wireless product. | |

| Re: No Since I do not have a cell phone, then it would REALLY be a waste.
Just want telephone and DSL, and I wish they would stop wasting my time with those mailed ads (wonder how much that adds to my bill) to get all the extra services, video, and other whizbangs.

| nope not one bit.
I'd care if cable companies would LOWER rates for once...
Who honestly cares about the majority of cable channels anyway?
...all I want out of 'em is television, and internet. and if it came down to it, I'd rather pay 'em for that 6Mhz of bandwidth for internet than all the rest of what's coming down that wire spewing out useless, unused video signals. | |

Tulsa, OK | sprints network is overpimped anyways. They pimp out their network to every MVNO that comes calling anyways. I'd actually run the other way if my cable co offers it.

| no I don't even care about the double play. I could care less about a consolidated bill.
with the option these days to pay online or even automatic deductions, it's actually easier to see what the provider of each service is charging if you get the services separately.
how the hell are you going to tell if your "quadruple play" provider mis-charges without spending time poring over the consolidated bill and probably spending time on the phone? | |

| quad plays Makes sense to gather in and contract up your customers as much as possible. People will fall for the Quadruple play, but there is one question, what kind of price are cell companies going to use to bring customers into quadplays, since if you think about it, the triple plays get consumers mainly by $$$, not single bill or other crap, and all the triple play services are unlimited, what happens when you put in a multi tier (of minutes) system of cell phone plans? Will be hard to pull people in unless there is a unlimited cell phone plan, and those are prohibited so far by the cell phone market.  | |

Camp Hill, PA | Nope Don't care about the triple plays - too expensive when I consider I pay Vonage $15/mo for service, the discount on cable is laughable, and so is the discount on the internet.
Could care less about triple/quad plays. | |

I have no such option with DSL unless I purchase a POTS line.

| eggs in one basket Even if they were the same price, they will have to offer something more (features) to get people to consider it. I.e., able to watch what your dvr records, etc.. now wouldn't that be a feature we all want..  .. I think one of the biggest mistakes wireless carriers did cater to mvno's. You either have a network or you don't. If you want a network that bad, buy it or sell used cars. | |

| Sure! As long as... No 2-3 year contract, decent phones/services to choose from, and all on the same bill!
Just tack it on the bill (for at least a semi-reasonable price) with all the goodies!
