"Lots of companies raise prices as their volume stagnates."

We have a name for that. It's called "bankruptcy".

Comcast is not bankrupt (or stupid).

They have lost over 10% of their TV customers in the last 8 years and yet they are famous for the rapidity with which they raise rates.

As long as volume declines less that the price rises, which is often the case, a company can raise prices and keep making more money with less volume.
