Its not very often you hear customers singing the praises of their cable company. But Damon Monroe couldn't be happier.
Last summer he was the very first customer to sign up for Click!
Network...
...a publicly-owned cable operation run by the city of Tacoma,
Washington. The city decided to build its own cable system from
scratch, after hearing from so many people who were fed up with the
existing private cable company.
HOW ABOUT SOME METAL? ALTERNATE ROCK?
On Click!, Monroe gets a better picture, more choices, and 31 digital
music channels. All for less than he was paying his old cable company.
I THINK RIGHT NOW WERE A HUNDRED PERCENT BETTER THAN WHAT WE HAD
BEFORE.
Nationwide, thousands of people have complained about cable prices that
have increased at three and four times the rate of inflation.
Josie Martin represents the National Cable Television
Association...which says cable companies need higher rates so they can
improve their product.
JOSIE MARTIN: THE CABLE COMPANIES ARE INVESTING IN NEW TECHNOLOGY, IN NEW SERVICES, IN
NEW PROGRAMS, IN BETTER PICTURES, BETTER QUALITY SOUND.
In Tacoma, Click! Network says its already delivering those
things...and something else cable customers have been demanding: respect.
DIANE LACHEL: WE WANT THEM TO BE PLEASED. SATISFIED. COMPLETELY SATISFIED, ECSTATIC
IF POSSIBLE!
So far, Click! has signed up more than four thousand customers, and
wired about half of Tacoma. But the utility says the whole city is
already benefitting.
Since Click! signed on, the existing private cable company has added
channels and improved service...while holding the line on prices.
The trouble is, very few communities have cable competition.
Some customers have switched to satellite...
...but Consumers Union says for most people, that's not the answer.
GENE KIMMELMAN: YOU NEED TO BUY A DISH, THE INSTALLATION IS EXPENSIVE, YOU CANT GET
YOUR LOCAL BROADCAST SIGNALS.
Consumers Union says people need to tell congress to re-regulate cable
to prevent price gouging and to do more to encourage real competition.
HERB WEISBAUM: RIGHT NOW, ONLY ABOUT THREE PERCENT OF AMERICANS HAVE A CHOICE OF CABLE
PROVIDERS. AND CONSUMERS UNION SAYS WHERE THERE IS COMPETITION, PRICES
ARE LOWER...ABOUT TEN PERCENT LOWER THAN COMMUNITIES WITH JUST ONE CABLE
COMPANY. HW, CBS NEWS, SEATTLE.))
