I like that that happened.  I don't like either of them.  Now it's just one.

Because even less competion is a good thing....

One is phone and the other cable.  Right

I lived in Lousiana for two years. I had three options. AT&T U-Verse, Cox Cable, or Direct TV. Cox was expensive as hell. U-Verse was reasonable. Now what do you think happens to their pricing when one of the options goes away? You think AT&T is going to lower U-Verses pricing now that they've gobbled up a competitor.
