Then that’s a flawed business model and one of them will eventually get lucky in each market place and race prices once they are a monopoly.
I might be naive and hopeful to think that operators will have a blood handshake to set prices where customers can't wag the tail.
Such collusion is usually the basis of antitrust laws and ill-advised at best. Owen
