$190 is not bad for quality commmercial free programming. I pay more
than that for HBO alone. Local commercial filled TV and basic cable is
$80/month. Free antenna TV is long gone thanks to govt/corp collusion.
Add in internet and a landline phone (all 3 from one company) and
we're up to over $3000/yr.
Subscription services where you pay montly fees whether they are used
or not (like insurance premiums) are a corporate gold mine when you
consider millions of customers paying hundreds a month. That adds up
to billions for them each month. Its mind boggling.....
