Interesting read I think, maybe we all will be able to save a bit of cash after this is all said and done.
"Just weeks following passage of a statewide franchise, Verizon introduced its FiOS TV service in Keller, Texas, offering 180 video and music channels for US$43.95 a month, or a 35-channel plan for $12.95 a month. In response, the local cable company, Charter Communications (Nasdaq: CHTR) , dropped its prices, offering a package of 240 channels and fast Internet service for $50 a month. That's a big savings for the people of Keller, compared to the $68.99 Charter once charged for a TV package alone."
