Re: Exactly my plan... I saw a thread yesterday about the unadvertised $15 a month plan from Dish Network:
»[DISH] 14.99 for 20 channels and Locals+Local HD's?
Seems like a decent option to consider in the long run, if you don't want to go cold turkey.
Digital OTA on an HDTV is going to have a lot of cheap people scratching their heads about whether to keep cable.
Hopefully enough people will drop cable entirely to convince them to offer slimmer, more targeted packages if not actual a la carte.

Denton, TX | Bullseye. I would gladly pay $15 - $20 to pick a dozen or so of my favorite channels in HD. If I could get OTA on my own, plus ESPN, Comedy Central, TBS, FX, and a few others, it would be worth it totally. |

I still have two dishes on the roof, I'll check into this, thanks.

There, you just said it: A LA CARTE.
If I could put together 10-20 channels (MSNBC/Comedy/IFC/Sundance for me and few more for my wife) of my own I would pay up to ~$40-$50 in HD (NB: main HBO included because their docus are usually top-notch and some shows also great (Why did they drop Rome!?) plus RT w/ Bill Maher is a good one too.)
If they don't respond then I'm glad to take my money somewhere else, sorry.

Sterling Heights, MI | Comcast is offereing something new in my area. called the Digital Economy. Its locals, plus 20 or so cable stations (animal planet, usa, etc.). 29 bucks/mo, not too bad. |
