With one exception: ESPN. Live sports is the only thing many cable subscribers cite as the reason why they keep their cable/satellite subscriptions.

Wouldn’t they get a cut from the streaming fees that Netflix pays thereby making up for lost ad revenue.

They need to adapt, or die off. That’s how it goes.

So netflix is the target of net neutrality and tv is the backer?

$170.00 per month cable bills probably ruined cable.
Bring it down and maybe I’ll come back. If not, well, so long.

Boo freaking Hoo.
For years and years, consumers were screwed over by cable providers who insisted that letting viewers CHOOSE which cable stations they wanted "ala carte" was a no-go.
Why, for instance, would I want to pay for PMSNBC when I never, ever, ever watch it?
Finally, netflix comes along as an alternative and voila! the cable folks finally care.
Netflix isn't the greatest, but they fill a niche.

Heh! Just yesterday there was someone who came to my door to ask if I wanted Comcast.
I politely said no because Comcast is run by people who are against the second amendment.
I’m not certain if Comcast is, but it still felt good.
Haven’t watched TV since 2009.

After enjoying Netflix or Amazon, why would anyone return to inane TV shows/sitcoms with endless commercials/laugh tracks that amp the volume to make sure you hear them in the kitchen or behind the bathroom door when you flee from the family room.
Death to TV.

If a decade ago the cable companies had conceded their customers should be able to pick and choose the individual stations they desired to rent ... Netflix would likely not exist today. Bad move, cable. Bad move.

The Wall Street Journal reported that a drop in TV ratings and viewership can be chalked up to subscription-based streaming services, including Netflix, Hulu and Amazon. Not to lousy customer service, outageously expensive fees, and nothing but crap on TV?

Walking Dead shows the problem they’re having with Netflix isn’t the service, it’s the product. The top 5 shows Sunday were the new ep of WD, the Talking Dead discussing the show, Real Housewives of Atlanta, reshowing last week’s ep of WD, and then reshowing this week’s ep. Make shows people want to watch and they will, don’t and they’ll find shows they want to watch.
