But not in multiple dwellings, right?  That would require them to either
install a duplicate network of coax feeding each "lit" unit, or for the
owner of the MDU to have completely kicked the other carrier out -- they
can't run MOCA over the same cable someone else is running digital cable
and DOCSIS on.  Or can they?
