We wake up every day and there is some new competitor out there — a Roku or a Boxee. People like to think of cable operators as monopolists, but we face a lot of competition just to keep the business we have.
Melinda Witmer, Time Warner Cable Inc.’s programming chief, in “Apple Waits in Wings as Cable’s TV Everywhere Stamps Out Free”
If the cable providers made any effort to deliver extra value for consumers instead of cable companies, they’d face a lot less competition. The difference between this mentality and that of Jeff Bezos is perfect.
