Video revenues declined 1.6%, principally due to a lower number of basic subscribers, offset in part by continued growth in digital customers and digital video recorder and high-definition television services, and video rate increases. We lost 4,000 basic subscribers during the period, compared to a gain of 4,000 in the prior year period.
