Well I had some MCOM at 9!!!! only made a bit and then it tanked... GOOD NEWS IN LATIMES!!!! latimes.com Customers are welcoming the stepped-up competition for their business. Fox Sports Net is one of them. The broadcasting firm is setting up a new all-digital multi-studio facility in Marina del Rey. In an attempt to win the business, GTE, PacBell and MCI WorldCom have offered to run extra fiber to the building for free, according to Robert Dutcher, director of broadcast and technical operations for Fox Sports Net and Fox Sports International. Facing Competition From Other Fronts Other companies also are anxious to get a foothold in the video transport business. Among them: traditional phone companies such as AT&T and video specialists ranging from long-haul carrier Vyvx, to WamNet, a firm backed by MCI WorldCom that aims to become a worldwide video transport hub. Vyvx, for example, is finding ways to bypass the local phone companies completely. The company recently ran a big fiber pipe into the Fox Digital lot, where the company produces NFL football games among other things, according to Dutcher. He said the move likely cut the local phone company out of 30 to 40 local lines. chris
