Re: A la carte will end up with less choice You mean I'd only have a choice of three shopping channels and not ten? 
Show me where the bad outwieghed the good in an a la carte offering? Which national cable provider has made such an offering longterm and provided evidence to such a conclusion. |

You don't pay for them anyway and with a-la-cart you're still going to have access to them weather you want them or not being as you aren't paying for them in the first place.

| I'm not paying for them? Then how come they are included in my top 180 channel line up, like the other garbage music, infomercial and religious fluff they stick in my package just so they can say I'm getting 180 channels? I PAYfor the channel line up, don't I? Have you ever flipped through the channel line up and seen what that crap is? Let the good programs weed out the fluff bad programs and guess what? The overpaid Hollywood "actors" and producers will will have to earn their money by putting out a better product. |

Erie, PA | Correct, you're not.
said by OceanaJones:Then how come they are included in my top 180 channel line up Because they are 24 hour commercials and most likely they pay the operator to run them.
said by OceanaJones:like the other garbage music... ... and religious fluff they stick in my package just so they can say I'm getting 180 channels? Those are a different issue, you most likely are paying for those.
said by OceanaJones:I PAYfor the channel line up, don't I? yes, you also pay for newspapers and magazines and those have content that someone else is paying the publisher to include as well.
A-la-cart is not going to mean you won't have shopping channels, they're still going to be included with any other channels you choose.
