The Washington Post reports:

Netflix has reached an agreement with three smaller cable companies that, for the first time, will let U.S. subscribers watch the streaming video service's content as though it were an ordinary cable channel. The deal will add Netflix as an app to certain set-top boxes nationwide on RCN, Grande Communications and Atlantic Broadband.

    1) This was for minor cable companies only, the more these smaller companies can compete the less of a monopoly the big few have.

    2) This is great for netflicks, the more they have their apps out there the more chance they can get more subscribers and therefore the less reliance they have on big cable companies.
