This would indeed be absurd if it were how markets are supposed to work - however, this could only happen through a terrible business model (which merging would not alleviate - their debt still carries), so I think I'd prefer the competition.

The anti-trust issues are massive here - remember, the gov't nixed the merger of DirecTV and EchoStar 3 or 4 years ago, which would seem considerably more kosher.
