The phone and cable wires are just that: WIRES.

Yes, but individual households cannot credibly subscribe to any one of a large 
assortment of these utilities. I can choose any number of supermarkets I go to, 
and change the one I deal with as often as I want. Not the same thing for 
water/sewer or wired Internet/telephone service. Not until this becomes 
wireless, anyway. At which point, I would agree, no heavy regulation would be 
needed anymore.


Hmm. If I'm remembering correctly, television used to BE completely wireless. Oh, uh, until cable came along.
