Council Member Jennifer Gutiérrez inquires about the usage of cable TV by Big Apple Connect subscribers. Brett Sikoff provides limited information on the topic.

  • OTI does not have data on how many of the 330,000 users have a TV set up with cable
  • This information is not reported to OTI by the service providers
  • Sikoff is unsure if this information can be obtained from the providers but agrees to look into it
  • The focus of their surveys has been on Internet usage rather than cable TV usage

Just what the cost difference is.
1:23:20
Yeah.
1:23:20
We just wanna we wanna know why we're paying I mean, I just wanna know what we're paying more for.
1:23:26
Okay.
1:23:26
And I think you already I think I asked this before, so I jumped the gun a little bit.
1:23:31
But do you know of the 330,000 users, how many of them have a TV set up with cable?
1:23:37
Is that information that is reported to you all?
Brett Sikoff
1:23:40
It's not reported to us.
1:23:41
Yeah.
1:23:41
We don't have that visibility.
Jennifer Gutiérrez
1:23:44
Is this something that they can provide?
1:23:47
Spectrum penalties?
Brett Sikoff
1:23:48
We could take a look at that.
1:23:48
I I don't want to commit to that.
1:23:50
I I don't know if they I don't know.
1:23:52
We could take a look to see if that's information we can get.
Jennifer Gutiérrez
1:23:54
Yeah.
