A la carte might make sense if the pricing was more reasonable. I don't want to pay $2-3 per episode to own a TV series I'll never watch again.

  I agree with this, the other night I saw a show I wanted to watch but then it proposed a $3 price to watch the episode which sadly turned me off. I laughed like 'ha I guess I'm that cheap' turned off my tv and rolled over in bed to go to sleep. I wonder what price might have gotten me in that moment? $0.50?

    I would pay $3 for renting a single movie, but not for a show episode because that would build up too fast. 10 episodes per season and that’s already $30 for one show.

      TV on DVD was just as bad.

    If the bar is netflix's $12, then 3 bucks better get me 1 week, call it 40 hours of content. I'd be much more eager to watch a bunch of different shows and spend a lot more money than if I had to pay $2.99 or whatever to rent a movie on itunes/amazon.

    I absolutely agree that the price points per episode are wrong. Zappos used to let you rent not buy an episode for I think .99 and that was a very reasonable price point. $10-$12 or so for a season of a quality TV show was OK.
