One of the things I have read about that is in favor of Qwest is the internet and video-streaming. As more and more video is needed, the theory is that they will have to go fiber optic as these are bandwidth hogs. And since Qwest will be the only game in town thats pretty much fully fiber optic, that these customers will be forced into Qwest. Also programs for the internet that use this bandwidth will be written, focusing more business into Qwest. The theory goes on that this will continue in Qwests favor until the other fiber optic nets come on line, sometime in the next 2 years. Until than its Qwest. Comments from those more in tune than I?
