## Resource

A seismic shift in the streaming wars. Charter, the cable behemoth, saw 21,000 TV subscribers vanish last quarter. And the internet losses are starker: 172,000 customers cut the cord on their broadband. But there's a silver lining for the company, poised to merge with Cox Communications. Charter added a massive 400,000 new mobile line subscribers, signaling a strategic pivot. Is this the future of connectivity, or a desperate scramble for market share?
