We assumed it wouldn't be ~$10 a channel.



Ya, but each channel only showed a limited selection, on their own schedule, with commercials.

Compare that with the amount of binge watching that you can do with a $10 Netflix subscription.

Things are infinitely better online than what I was getting with my cable subscription.


It already was, though. HBO, Cinemak, Starz were all in that range.


But it wasn't because it was ~120 channels for ~$120/m.
