A cable alternative to Metrocast??

For reasons I increasingly don't understand, our government(s) have decided it makes sense to award exclusive licences to cable companies in each town. If your town has Metrocast, that is the only option. Given how quickly things are changing in the video and streaming spaces, this needs to change.

In the end, the biggest issue is you only have one choice for a high bandwidth, internet connection...and it's Metrocast.

(And BTW, I've been very happy with my Metrocast broadband service. Though I would like to have options)
