I have cable. I like it in general. There are about 10 channels I like out of 70 or so. I would not pay $1 for any programs. That would add up too fast. I watch when I'm doing grunt work on my computer. I watch a lot of news particularly at odd hours like Bloomberg at 5AM. Sometimes I think I may abandon cable all together as I think it is detrimental to my ability to work and grow. I'd be better off without it. At $50/mnth I'm paying $600/yr with no write off. When I look at the costs of movie and TV program downloads it looks too high for me although that might be a good thing. I'd be more selective about what I watch. On the other hand I watch a lot of educational programs so they are not a big waste. I think I'm like a lot of people. I'd like to cut my watching down and costs down. It's just barely a wash. So far no one has solved this for me. Tivo no. Cable no. There are no solutions I like. What I'd really like is to be able to subscribe to ONLY the channels I regularly watch. That would be ideal. I wish Apple had it's own pay for each channel network. I'd buy a box for that.
