“We commend the Commission for its constructive approach in adopting sensible, targeted fixes to the current CableCARD rules that provide cable operators the necessary flexibility to continue improving the CableCARD experience for all of our customers.
“We agree with the Commission that implementing these changes – including increasing options for self-installation, providing more transparency and properly equipping technicians – will assist customers who use retail devices that rely on CableCARDs. Our industry will work diligently to implement these changes. We also will continue working constructively with TiVo and other providers of retail ‘cable ready’ products to assure that our mutual customers can seamlessly enjoy all of the cable services available to them.
“As we look toward the future, our industry is committed to working with the Commission in the ‘All Vid’ proceeding that explores new cross-industry approaches to develop a fully competitive and innovative retail video device marketplace.”
