Last we checked, cable controlled roughly 70% of the VoIP market, a number we're sure has risen since the stellar fourth quarter VoIP additions most cable providers reported. AT&T, Verizon, Qwest and Embarq are collectively losing roughly 2.6 million landline customers per quarter (http://www.ipdemocracy.com/archives/002897top_telcos_lose_a_steady_23_to_26_million_li nesqtr.php), and about half of those users are converting over to cable VoIP. All told, cable operators now report more than 13 million phone customers (http://www.ipdemocracy.com/archives/002899cable_telephony_tops_the_13million_mark.php) . While the price of cable VoIP is steep compared to many indie VoIP operations, customers say they're more satisfied (http://www.thegng.org/shownews/85643) with the phone service from their cable provider than from their phone company.
