The issue is local channels. Many people like myself still want local news and w/o a good over the air signal the only way to get local is a cable bundle. at least currently. Once that occurs, cable bundles will be history and it will be full ala carte streaming.

We have both for now. But the local channels are seeing the writing on the wall and adding streaming apps. I don’t like to stay up for the 11 pm news, so often turn to the local streaming app at bedtime.

Local TV news is available on multiple apps on ROKU and several stations have their own apps for their news programs on several platforms.

There is zero need to have the bundle for a 6PM newscast or breaking news.
