6) And pursuant to 3, perhaps I could even set up the IPTV service and resell that to the L3 provider to bundle with their IP service, so they don't have to do it themselves; while it's not a difficult as I had gathered, it's still harder than them doing VoIP as part of their own triple-play.So you are going to prohibit the operator of the fiber plant from running layer 3 services, but then turn around and let them offer IPTV? That seems quite inconsistent to me. And just because it's "hard"?
No; I wouldn't offer it retail; I'd offer it to all provider-comers wholesale, at cost plus, just like everything else.
Running a decent layer 3 service is "hard" too. Isn't the whole point to let these service providers compete with each other on the quality and cost of their services?
You could say the same thing about the uplink, though; I note you didn't throw a flag at that, or at Akamai; is the IPTV issue different to you? Fair point. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
