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) _____________________ Subs paying subscribers for basic TV D-TV digital TV services CM cable modem Tele local telephone service AT&T AOL Time W Comcast Charter Cox Comm Subs 16,000,000 12,800,000 7,608,800 6,350,900 6,193,317 D-TV 2,814,000 1,700,000 1,354,000 1,070,000 842,000 CM 1,082,000 946,000 482,000 252,400 482,000 Tele 547,000 0 0 0 245,000
