Re: BT attacking MSO's via a BellSouth Type Plan British Telecommunications Plc is poised to offer combined telephone and television packages with ONdigital and Sky, industry sources said on Tuesday. Exactly what BellSouth was supposed to rollout. I think it's a great idea. Here is a url that wraps up all of BellSouth's plan: Message 15600740 BT has 21 million retail customers but has lost millions to the country's two cable operators. Telewest is luring customers with an entry level package costing 9.60 pounds ($13.60) for a telephone line and 11 digital TV channels, compared with 10 pounds ($14.15) for a BT line on its own." Fantastic! Exactly what needs to happen in the USA and is happening. But the real fireworks begin when cablecos attack ILEC business markets. I'm afraid if we don't trash 96 Telecom Act type thinking, ILECs will only attack back in court/congress instead of on the streets. -MikeM(From Florida)
