Comcrap acquires Time Warner

[Denny Crane]

You are comparing the cost of very expensive wireless infrastructure with a wired outside plant. It would be like saying to speed up cable modem, they have to re-pull every single cable. When they do upgrade or build out something like 4G, they have to replace or add gear at every cell tower location.

I'm quite sure Verizon or the others would prefer to go unlisted, but the cost would be a huge loss for them. The carriers that do offer unlimited 4G data are awful. Even the ones that meter have problems - like at NFL stadiums where they get 50,000 people trying to get score updates using data all at the same time.
