Journal Article
Cable Modems and DSL: Broadband Internet Access for Residential Customers
2001
Overview
Cable firms are positioned to dominate the broadband industry as they have dominated the delivery of multichannel video programming. With control of both the broadband content and the pipes, a large footprint encourages cable firms to discriminate against their unaffiliated content and conduit rivals. Regulators should subject any pending mergers to an open-access provision. The regulatory agencies should require vertically integrated cable firms to afford unaffiliated ISPs equal and nondiscriminatory access to the combined company's cable modem platform. Doing so will ensure that the incumbent cable provider does not evade the advent of open access, will promote investment, and will limit the cable firm's ability to engage in both conduit and content discrimination.
