Who needs cable TV?

I wish i could get my cable ala cart.

Ditto - some folks in congress agree - but the argument from the cable folks is that the few channels we watch keep the rest of the channels running and that if we went ala cart, no one would watch the public access channels.

Now here's an idea - pay a-la carte for the programs that you watch - forget about the channels - it's what my Tivo is doing anyway. Everything else is just white noise.

Oh, i see, kind of like universal pay-per-view? I'd be into that. I dont watch much TV as it is. Paying $100 a month for cable and internet seams excesive to me considering what shows I actually do watch and usage of the internet. Its a shame that the cable/internet industry isn't more competitive.
