Cheap home internet from T-Mobile and Verizon is here, and it’s already threatening the cable giants.
BY JARED NEWMAN
For years, Comcast and other cable companies have leaned on a simple
strategy to offset the effects of cord-cutting: Charge a steep price
on home internet service, and enjoy soaring profits thanks to little
or no competition.
That strategy may now be in jeopardy. Comcast’s internet subscriber
growth was essentially flat last quarter, while Charter lost 21,000
Spectrum internet subscribers. For both companies, it’s the first time they’ve failed to grow their home internet businesses in a given
quarter.
