Just like every corporation, I'm sure they'll find away to thrive by adapting with technology. Most cable companies have a monopolyon hard wired internet service too, so they'll probably find a way to offer TV service somehow, at a lower cost.
Just to think of all of the infrastructure that cable companies have laid in the ground that'll be outdated in the next couple of decades. Will all of them go to fiber optic? Who knows. I'd like to see faster wireless products than wasting natural resources on pulling fiber cables everywhere.
