Why Cable Sucks (no offense to Breand)

[Kakarat]

Eh, everyone has to face the bills, though, and cable bills are becoming increasingly difficult to justify. Sure, my parents will keep using cable regardless because they aren't net-savvy enough to want to try and find shows online but I think anyone my age or younger will be increasingly reluctant to either sign up for cable or to continue getting it.

A la carte is definitely going to be seen as a "revenue protection". It's not critical now but I predict it will be within 5 years.

In my personal experience I hold a lifelong grudge versus cable companies(my area anyways). Their modems did not support a router connected to it and timed out once in awhile. That is the cable internet grudge I hold. My DSL is consistent and reliable. Because of the internet issue I had, I canceled the whole cable idea and have saved myself a lot of money over the last 6 years.
Any movie or tv show I want to watch or would watch I can catch on the internet now one way or another...
