Actually, cable systems are only very seldom NOT monopolies, and as
economists, virtually all monopolies charge 'monopoly rents.' "Overcharging
a bit| is to monopoly rents what an inch is to a mile. The state and
national franchising options will help erode the monopoly positions, but
only the incumbent telcos can play that game.
And, none will ever succeed offering 'minipay' services that purport to
compete with cable.
