How about it?

Dear Cablevision,

If I give back all seven Spanish-language channels, can I pleeeeze have BBC America without paying you an extra $55 per month?

Love,

Guess what, Mr. Mansplainer: it IS feasible. If they and the channels worked at it, they could do it. But instead they make these stupid "rules," the same way that the cell phone companies do, that benefit only them and not the customer.

It's bullshit.

And I agree--people are going to the Internet (and to pirac y) in droves. Give people what they want, customizable, at a great price? They'd happily stay w/cable.
