Supplementary notes

Methodology: This table was created by taking the weighted averages of the platform-based concentration in a local market outside of AT&T and Verizon Wireline territory; provider concentration in an AT&T landline local franchise market; and the provider concentration in a Verizon landline local franchise market. Breakdown of mobile vs. landline (including business lines) percentages are based on 2009 average minutes per month. Earlier years extrapolated based on 2009 figure. Distribution among cable firms is based on telephone revenue. Assumed one landline incumbent available to a local subscriber.
