Message: [QUOTE="alphaorange, post: 641485, member: 305"] I remember the golden age of the monster dishes. All programming was basically ala cart via a multitude of providers. The monthly guide was 3/4" thick and the wild feeds were to die for...every single game that was televised somewhere was there somewhere, including the NFL and NBA. It didn't die because the people watching stuff for free made them unprofitable, it dies because they were greedy. They saw a revenue source and tapped into it. If they hadn't, they would still have been hugely profitable. Same thing now. They'll still make money, just less of it. That is, unless they find the buying public will tolerate higher prices on the channels they want. In that case, they still win. [/QUOTE]
