CABLE OPERATORS

The U.S. cable industry is the nation’s largest broadband provider of high-speed Internet access. Multi-system operators (MSOs) and smaller independent operators also provide digital telephone service to millions of Americans, plus video programming from hundreds of television networks. Issues facing cable operators include regulatory oversight and the FCC; competition with telcos, satellite and the Web; a la carte; CableCARDs; the DTV transition; rural broadband; bandwidth caps; and more.
