DOJ investigates cable companies for antitrust of online video

Just when you thought nothing 'good' comes from the DOJ, it begins investigating possible antitrust (anti competition) from cable companies as it relates to Internet TV services such as Netflix, Hulu, etc.  Nothing may become of it but there is a possibility this could be good news for OTT advocates and consumers of online video services.  Could this be a beginning to a-la-carte TV subscriptions to go live online? Wouldn't it be nice to subscribe to your favorite 8 cable TV channels $2/mo each and have it delivered over your Internet connection?  An interesting article from the WSJ here.
