How many of you are old enough to remember the uproar when cable TV was being given sweetheart right-of-way deals and the promise was "you'll have to pay for the cable but you won't have to put up with commercials anymore"...... You see where that went.
yes, but the orignal cable tv was all about movie channels. then innovation and the marketplace took over and the universe of cable networks exploded. TNT, USA, AMC and lots, lots more. the choices are numerous and that might not have happened had the feds intervened more than they have.
