NCTA has a new impact campaign out to let people, pundits and politicians that the cable industry is impactful. I never thought the cableco’s would be talking about how they save a consumer money! The new campaign says cableco’s save consumers up to $1000 per year in cellular bills. This and TV they buy wholesale and bundle. Granted, Large Cable is building out 5G, CBRS and wi-fi offload to reduce the wholesale costs of mobility, but how long can they maintain thw low price lead?
Consumers do not get device discounts from cable – and that seems to be the bundle for the MNO’s: free phones.
