I agree with the concept but it will never happen.

First off are the shopping channels. Did you know that they actually pay the TV providers like Dish Network for their channels to be shown to everyone? These channels actually help hold our costs down.

Second is the way the channels negotiate with the providers. They do not want an a la carte deal. They want to be available to as many as possible. They also pay more to be in a higher tier of channels.

Also, I know I am not interested in Lifetime or Disney. But my wife and kids would kill me if I just went with the channels I wanted.
