Re: TWC/Brighthouse ftw said by Racerbob:Screw Viacom. We don't watch or need any of their channels in our home. I hope that the channels go off ...permanently. I agree "screw Viacom"...but you also left out screw TW too. This is a fight about whom can be more greedy. Will TW customers get reduced rates if these channels go away?...never! Will Viacom learn that reduced revenues from advertising in a bad economy will effect their bottom line?....never! Viacom will be shoveling more Flava Flav type crap because they can get it cheap, rather than actually showing Music Videos on Music TV because of the royalties involved.
The real question is...what would Vannila Ice do? |

 | I agree let them drop ViaCrap from the lineup.
Extortion is what these companies are doing a reasonable rate increase at times are expected but from what I am aware of this is no ordinary rate increase 3 fold increase is high.
I hear some are going to switch to Satellite TV, I think that is more expensive but if they want those channels then go ahead pay through the nose.
Content providers are acting like OPEC greedy.
I rather not pay extra for 19 of Viacom's channels.
Especially LOGO. Keep that to yourselves. |
