"Cable and satellite TV subscriptions cost just $2 or $3 a month, which makes paying even 50 cents for a movie seem expensive." While that might be true in Tier-2 cities, the cost of a cable/satellite connection in Bangalore is of the order of Rs.450+, which is about $7/month. I'd gladly give that up for a service like Netflix which charges $8-$10/month.
