Qwest CenturyLink merger may shift local phone service
The proposed Qwest Communications and CenturyLink merger could close soon after recent state and federal approvals. CenturyLink aims to expand national broadband and video offerings, while existing comparisons show little short term impact for customers. Comcast is targeting Qwest customers with a lure to switch. New Mexico officials note nonessential PRC action but support broader network investment and cheaper broadband access. FCC approval arrived March 18 with commitments to preserve competition and expand broadband for households and schools.
