"Viacom countered that it was asking for only a modest increase of about 25 cents a month, or $3 a year, per subscriber for its package of 19 channels." »www.latimes.com/entertainment/ne···85.story
This is a different figure than what TW is bitching about!
Although 25 cents may sound "modest", what is the % increase over what is being paid now? Does this increase follow inflation or is it a substantial rate hike by Viacom?
The facts are, when you multiply relatively small numbers by 10's of million's of households times many channels you get very large $$'s.
