[QUOTE="Mike_60, post: 2686226, member: 16957"] A ROW is available to anybody who the government decides can use it. The land isn't a resource because it isn't given over to any company by the government. The deed owners own the land but the government retains control over the use of the land. The only thing the companies own are the facilities crossing the land, at least until it's abandoned. There is usually plenty enough room for whoever wants to put cable in it to do it. But it's expensive to place a pole line, or to bore which is more common these days, but it's the cost of doing business. Unless, you want to take the cheap route and cry "unfair" so you can get access to the facilities that have already been placed by those before you. If Google really wants to play they should pay their own way and not cry to the FCC to get access to everybody else' facilities. [/QUOTE]
