Re: just Maybe

i'm sure cable industry doesn't want alacarte
but what if their original statement that it'll be more expensive was true..
now they see that ppl are pushing for it so they'll say "screw you customers idiots. you want your alacarte, here have it: cnn will be $4/month, discovery chan will be $5/month, comedy central $5/month" so in the end it will indeed be more expensive

look at what I pay for ALA CARTE on a big dish, since there are so few of us BIG dish users it would seem the buying power of this company would be no where near what cable or small dish companies *really* pay per subscriver per channel deal.

yet here it is . a *cheap* alternative and I buy what I *want*.

makes me happy, and I don't pay for SPORTS channel that gobble up 50% of todays cable bills to pay for those outlandish salries and deals in that industry.

Typical cableco type crap. i shouldn't have to have 5 or 10 other services to order a certain channel.
