I’m Glad I Have Direct TV Because I Like the Fox Network

So my cable company, which I won’t say by name because I don’t want to be blackballed on my internet service, is having another campaign where they say write to FOX because they want to charge you extra for getting their service through cable. These networks usually want about $1 per subscriber.

This has happened before where this cable provider completely dropped a network channel while they and the network channel played hardball with each other. I know there are hundreds of channels on cable and satellite but the channel that you can absolutely not lose is any of the major networks. DirectTv dropped VS and I could care less. It’s not like I need to see a hockey all star game or something. I do kind of miss the MMA league WEC though.

My point is, if I was still a subscriber I would gladly pay the extra $1 to keep FOX. I don’t want to miss Football, American IDOL, or Family Guy. I could do without the Cleveland Show which is unwatchable like American Dad. I also don’t want to change to rabbit ears whenever I need to watch FOX because I don’t think I can DVR it that way. I know these cable companies don’t want to give in to FOX because other network channels will probably do the same thing but an extra $1 a month or even an extra $5 a month for all my network channels is totally worth it. I don’t think DirectTv is having a FOX battle right now.
