Re: Vote yes for A La Carte

That is fine. However, if true a la carte pricing was to become the norm, those particular channels that I listed would not be any of the channels I paid to receive. I acknowledge that there are people who want to receive those channels, and that is what true a la carte is about (or should be about): what people want.

If for example, all a person watches is sports and news, then by all means should they be able to only subscribe to sports and news channels.

I, for example, watch mostly anime, and a few cartoons. I also enjoy a good movie every once and a while. I have news content delivered to my cell phone and email inbox, and I will pick up a newspaper and read it. I couldn't care less about sports, I don't listen to those digital music channels, and I couldn't care less about what is on HSN or QVC. If I want any news beyond the newspaper or the news content I've subscribed to, then I will watch one of the evening news programs on the local networks.
