:Seriously.. Unlawful? Comeone, they friggin have an illegal monopoly with these places and theres not a damn thing the tenants can do about it and they say it'd be unlawful to overturn this?!?
What bothers me, is that theres gonna be some that aggressively defend comcast on this....
There's still not a damn thing a tenant can do about it.
Put yourself in that scenario.
Fine, the contract is over. Who do you get service from?
You can't get a dish, because the FCC rules do not cover apartment buildings.
You can't get IPTV because those providers will not service MDUs.
You can't get another cable company because areas with MDU contracts don't have overbuilders in the first place (hence why the apartment owners agree to MDU contracts).
Who do you get service from?
Oh, and your lease already specifies your monthly payment which does not change now that you no longer get free cable. So, your real savings is zero; and you have no provider.
I think your wrong about using a dish, check this link out
