Telco is a telephone company, Verizon or AT&T. They offer fiber service now, with TV & Internet & phone, that is replacing cable in many areas.

I use AT&T Uverse for my internet. I run 4 PCs, 2 game consoles and a laptop. We have used the internet for all of our traditional TV viewing.

In fact my youngest told me last night that he was happy that we no longer had DISH, because he can now watch ‘better shows’

Telco and cable are now one and the same, imo. My cable provider (Suddenlink) provides my local and long distance phone service. $30/month, unlimited local and long distance.

with cable, if you have bandwidth hogs up stream it can cut your service speed, with telco you are the only one on the line...
