What did you say? Did you ask for it, or did they bring it up?

I told them they were full of shyt for canceling my channels.

Then I said I was going to cancel my service if they didn't give me Sunday ticket free.

I spazzed on the customer service dude until I got to talk to a manager and he made it happen

Yeah, I'm gonna call. I tried to go the email route, but I just got an automated email back about getting encore channels for free instead.

In the end you will end up paying more to fry your brain.

A la Carte is the future...

Maybe, but you are going to get raped for it. These companies will do everything in their power to resist the providers and ultimately the customers from picking what they want to carry/see.

20 dollars for all espn channels
20 for all viacom
20 for all AOL Time Warner

Then whatever "box" you carry charge a fee.

Internet fees go up with providers to offset the loss in revenue from people potentially switching to a la carte.


:ehh:, I don't see it happening anytime soon. You'll probably see a legal fight first in order to allow customers to get a la carte.
