I don’t understand the whole brand thing. Like RCN buys WoW and
rebrands it Astound? Personally I would not choose a name that
sounds like AssTown. And AT&T had UVerse but then the geniuses
decided to rebrand it … AT&T Internet! Or Viasat buys WildBlue,
renames it Exede, then renames that … Viasat!
Personally I think they do it when the trucks need repainting.

At least in the case of Comcast, they see their "cable
business" (NBC
included) as declining value, so they are shifting their
revenue stream to the one thing they have left.

jacking up the rates, sometimes by up to 20%. I’m wondering
whether it’s market forces, compensating for overspending on
govt subsidized builds that they now have to recoup, or just
because they can? What are you seeing in other markets?
