Comcast to buy Time Warner Cable for $45 billion (USA Today)
thensley1983 replied to COZisBack's topic in General Topics
what most people don't understand about the cable indestry, is they are almost always "RE" broadcasting someone elses signal. so that being said broadcast companies have been pushing cable companies around for the last 10 yeas. in some cases asking for a 500% raise in revenue case in point when i worked for insight communications "the game show network" said "pay us 400% more or we won't let you broadcast our signal anymore" insight thankfully said bye bye GSN another network that costs absolutely TOO much is ESPN which makes up about 1/4 of what we all pay for our cable bill. most cable companies lose money on "Cable" but internet and phone are theirs and its 100% pure profit, hence the reason why double play offers and triple play offers are often less then having cable by itself. i currently work for comcast through a contractor servicing the greater boston market and western new england market that includes states like CT NH NY ME. currently if you have just cable, every channel will cost you around 170 dollars plus tax. every channel plus 50 meg internet plus unlimited phone costs 167 plus tax both packages are 1 DVR HD and every channel and just so everyone knows ESPN cost to insight was 57 dollars per subscriber i don't know what it costs time warner or comcast but it wouldn't be hard to guess that its close to the same if not more as the number i have is from 4 years ago -
Looks like the tower on mall road got upgraded as normal downloads were 12kbps now its 1.2mbps that is what I got at 18 and huston road
-
yeah clear hows alot of its own towers and own deployment even when the site is co-located there may be clear upgrades but sprint still has legacy equipment like the colerain area and no triband phone will work without the CSFB being on all the towers in that area and that won't happen till samsung upgrades the tower and the legacy equipment is taken out IE (4g only sites won't have CSFB) as you are still connecting to legacy equipment for voice and text
