Message: [QUOTE="ClifSpliffy, post: 4077341, member: 9260"] while the world was sleeping last spring, ATT announced a sea change in their thinking. wall street en masse responded with an almost universal thumbs down. they're wrong. in a nutshell, ATT is kinda getting out of the 'content' business, and focusing more on their telecommunications infrastructure, cuz, you know, whatever cat videos or australian toe wrestling videos offered by a provider, it still has to get to you. they own a lot of that 'get to you' stuff. content providing is facing thinner and thinner margins, and new players are entering all the time. netflix at 8 bucks was just too easy, [I]then. [/I]today? well i just recently heard thru the insiders grapevine that frontier is tying into their old pal ATT's monetization of infrastucture thinking, cuz they've got lots of wires and stuff that they own, while sliding back from the content biz. it's a content jungle out there, with new entrants all the time, like [I]amazon.[/I] the easiest steady money made in the kali gold rush was had by the people who provided the stuff everrone needed, like levi strauss, and the people who made pans. miners? notsomuch.
