You will still be able to pay for it all, you may be paying someone other than the cable company or maybe not, but in either case the profit will accrue to the content providers rather than the cable company.  This will not be complex - your internet connected TV will do the work for you. 
 
I think you are in one camp, the camp that likes things how they are and wants to continue interacting with media the way you always have. and to a certain extent you will be able to do so. But there are people like me who would only pay for access to BBC News, PBS, ESPN, ACC network, CNBC, and maybe HBO. My entertainment budget expenditure will get smaller and those networks will make more money than they do under the current system because the cable company isn't holding them hostage and they will be able to do much more targeted advertising because they will be interacting with me directly and in a ways that are impossbile via the traditional one-way cable pipe. You will be able to buy your bundle from a content aggregator which may or may not be the cable company, it could very well be whoever supplies the interface (google, apple).
