All that DVR, commercial skipping is coming home to roost. It could not last.

I know, the programming sucks; but there are always a few shows we watch; sans commercials. It’s a business model set to fail.

TWC blacked out NBC and the CW for almost 6 months in Corpus Christi, TX for the same reason.

Viacom is doing the same thing with Directv. No more Spike, Nickelodian, Comedy, Logo, CMT, TV Land, MTV, VH1.

You can always receive Hearst’s stations free over the air, with an antenna and digital TV tuner.
Gheeze, what a concept - FREE television. Who knew?
Monthly rates are so high, I think every cable viewer in the US should cancel their subscription for at least 3-6 months.
Maybe then providers like Time Warner, FIOS, Comcast, etc., won't take us for granted.
