It costs a certain amount of money to make these programs, if everyone is paying 50% less to get channels/services 'a la carte', then there's not enough money to make all those shows anymore.
- nickthemagicman 7y agoHave you done a cost breakdown on cable budgets? How do you know 50% of this money isn't going to executives,shareholders, and bloated corporate hierarchy...and the actual budget for the shows is the same no matter the pricing. Streaming services charge way way less than cable with much better content.
