Someone please let me know if they have Time Warner and what you think of this merger

My wife thinks that Comcast is better.

I have my doubts....if Comcast is buying out TW, then that means Comcast just got a whole lot bigger.

Which means to me that they are that much less in touch with the little guy.

IMO, this can put them in a position of "take it or leave it" kind of mindset.....no more getting good deals because of competition.

I would feel the same way if Time Warner was buying out Comcast.

The only benefit I see in my own selfish way is that the WatchESPN app would finally be worth something because it is only for certain cable outlets
