Yet they can only watch one channel, and record one other at a
time. I have never needed that much programming. Though I do like
what I see on channels I don't have when at other locations.
I guess what I want is a monthly cable service where one can watch
any one channel at a time, and pay one monthly fee for that all
channel service. One LOW fee as in less than $25 a month. Cable is
more than twice what it is worth, even the way it is currently
delivered.
Then, if one wanted to watch and record multiple feed, one could pay
for an extra feed.
Just like the electrical energy providers and petroleum producers,
the cable guys are also in the gouger's barrel. Big time. In fact,
they have been in it longer than most. It has always been too much
money for too little service with them.
