Cable may not have to compete within a locality against other cable providers, but they do have to compete against other media. We chose to spend our $ on other services, like rental movies, etc. Of course, with franchises like Blockbuster closing down the small video stores, even that outlet is becoming more monopolistic. As long as you give your cable provider $ each month, they don't give a damn about your whining on the net. Bob
