<<"is very clear: Cable's leased access channel obligations apply only to video programming. The current leased access rules were in no way meant to apply to Internet-related services.">> <<But Internet Ventures says it offers broadcast stations and "streaming video" over its high-speed system. "Though the means of delivery is different, the programming is indistinguishable," Freedman said.>> IMO this is a stretch! Internet offers some streaming video but it is still internet NOT video programming. If that were the case any industry could add a small amount of video into their service and claim that they have a right to open access. I don't think that this will hold water if appealed. Unreal...
