BIF-3: Mark Cuban would want to own Verizon

Projo journalist Sheila Lennon blogs Walt Mossberg's interview with Mark Cuban at BIF-3

Mossberg: In France you can get 100 megabytes broadband speed. Why not here?

Cuban said: "Public companies want a return. Innovation has stagnated because of (the demand for) earnings per share. You're going to see more companies go private that need to make significant investments in order to compete.

"...to me the flinch point is 100 megabytes throughput to the home. Verizon, or anybody who uses fiber can do it.

"...If I could buy one company, it would be Verizon."
