    “Consumers, Competition and Consolidation in the Video Broadband Market”

    Testimony of Dr. Mark Cooper Director of Research Consumer Federation of America on behalf of Consumer Federation of America Free Press Consumers Union before the Commerce Committee U.S. Senate Regarding “Consumers, Competition and Consolidation in the Video Broadband Market” March 11, 2010 MR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE , My name is Dr. Mark Cooper. I am the Director of Research at the Consumer Federation of America. I appear before you today on behalf of the Consumer Federation of America, Free Press and Consumers Union. We appreciate the opportunity to share our views on media markets and a merger that is unique in the history of the video market, one that will go a long way toward determining whether or not the future of video viewing in America is more competitive and consumer-friendly than the past. The merger of Comcast and the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) is a hugely complex undertaking, unlike any other in the history of the video marketplace. Allowing the largest cable operator in history to acquire one of the nation’s premier video content producers will radically alter the structure of the video marketplace and result in higher prices and fewer choices for consumers. The merging parties are already among the dominant players in the current video market. This merger will give them the incentive and ability to not only preserve and exploit the worst aspects of the current market, but to extend them to the future market. Comcast has sought to downplay the impact of the merger by claiming that it is a small player in comparison to the vast video universe in which it exists.

Oak Street, Suite 4000 Fort Collins, CO 80521 Dear Mr. Brown: As you know, Spectra Venue Management (formerly known as Global Spectrum) has successfully operated the Budweiser Events Center (BEC) since it first opened for business in 2003. Prior to the grand opening, Spectra served as the County’s pre-opening operational consultant, working with the architectural and construction teams to ensure that, when completed, the venue would meet all of the County’s goals and objectives with respect to event programming, operational efficiency, bottom-line financial performance, and overall impact on The Ranch and Larimer County economy. We are now excited to respond to the County’s RFI #I19-04 Development & Partnership Opportunities at The Ranch Events Complex – Proposed Hotel, Sports, and Event Facilities, as we are extremely eager to grow our partnership and remain involved in the development of the Master Plan. SPECTRA’S ACCOMPLISHMENTS AT THE BEC During our more than 15-year tenure as the manager of the BEC, we have become integral and highly respected members of the Larimer County community. Our performance at the BEC has been widely recognized and praised over the years, which is due to some of the following accomplishments: • We have averaged over 200 events at the BEC each year.
