Should service providers focus their efforts on providing advanced broadband-enabled communications services, or should they branch out into the content business, competing directly with cable firms? Should they do both? Should cable companies focus on broadband access and vertically integrate across the content value chain to take advantage of the new medium, or should they focus on providing VoIP and other telecommunications services, competing even more with traditional telecommunications companies? How can alternative service providers take advantage of the consumer broadband opportunity to compete successfully with incumbent and cable service providers? This paper helps service providers better understand the complex questions and begins to provide some of the answers.
