Almost everyone in the city already has broadband, so any potential new company would have to engage in a price war with the existing companies and would be unlikely to cover its costs for years, if ever.

No of Firms Present - 4 firms / few firms

Type of Product - Standadized Product

All the companies are offering a standadized product of broadband Internet access of the same speed.
