Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 4966587, member: 628"] Precisely. The problem with the cable bundle was never the bundle. The problems were: - Value. Prices kept escalating and customers didn’t feel like they were getting enough in return, which directly tied to… - Experience. The cable box experience stunk, and when people were exposed to internet experiences they realized how awful the cable experience was. Clunky navigation, poor on demand choices, terrible portability, etc. - Customer service. We all know about this one. I firmly believe that if the cable operators had managed price increases better, deployed IPTV boxes 10-15 years ago, and cut deals with programmers to offer the entire back catalog of their shows on demand, then we wouldn’t have seen the collapse of the industry like we have. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. ;) [/QUOTE]
