House Dems: Data Caps, SpectrumCo Key Future of Video Issues

Not surprisingly, the House Communications Subcommittee Democratic staffers have a slight different to-do list than their Republican counterparts. While over-the-top video, retransmission rules and Dish's Hopper ad-skipping DVR are on both lists of key topics that might come up in the June 27 future of video hearing in the subcommittee, Democrats have a couple more on their list. According to a copy of the Democrats' memo on the hearing, data caps are a key issue, as is the sale of spectrum from cable operators to Verizon.
