Re: USA MSO Stats - Top Five
Thread- These are figures as of December 31st, 2000. IMO
they seem in the ballpark.
What seems odd, and I bring it up as I skim over the
figures, is the annual revenues of all cablecos in the USA
are supposed to be in the neighborhood of some $30 billion.
If you take the ballpark figure of total subs being around
70 million, the math doesn't work out. At least strictly
from a subscription revenue source.
I can't recall the exact percentages now, but I was under
the belief that advertising was a smallish part of the
revenue stream. Apparently I may be wrong.
AT&T broadband is on an annual run rate of approximately
$10 billion. So the $30 billion overall cableco revenue
figures seems just about right from this perspective.
Oh well just thought I would throw it out there in case
someone knows the breakdown of the average cableco revenue
stream. -MikeM(From Florida)
