Hate Paying for Cable? Here’s Why. by Peter Kafka Posted on March 8, 2010 at 5:00 AM PT
Love grousing about cable TV? Then I’ve got a list for you. It comes from industry analyst SNL Kagan, and I came across it via a research note Barclays Capital’s Anthony DiClemente sent out last week. DiClemente was arguing that the bundled approach to cable TV–whereby subscribers get dozens or even hundreds of channels for one big fee, no matter how many networks they actually watch–wasn’t going anywhere for quite some time. If ever. But if you’re the kind of person who thinks we’re headed for an a la carte model in which programmers compete directly for consumer dollars, you can use this as fodder for your argument. Because you can see just how much you’re paying for stuff you don’t want. http://mediamemo.allthingsd.com/20100308/hate-paying-for-cable-heres-the-reason-why/ -- TV or Not TV ....
