No, sorry, but you're wrong. It isn't the cable companies. It's the content providers, who usually own several channels. If the cable company wants channels A & B (the ones people want), they also must carry C & D (that people don't want). Cable company can't unbundle because no one would take C & D and then they couldn't pay the content provider.

>For anyone still paying for cable: Buy a Roku player, then get a $8 a month NetFlix streaming account and a Hulu Plus account for another $8 or so and save yourself from the ridiculous cable bill. Why continue to pay for 50 or 100 channels of which you want maybe 6. The cable companies have been forcing these channel packages down our throats for years. Screw them.
