I've been saying it for years. Optimistic idiots think: If I pay $80 a month for 80 channels, and only watch 5, then with "a la carte" cable I'll only pay $5 a month for the 5 channels I watch.
It works great for me. I'm paying $2/mo for Hulu, and everything else throws me another free trial month every year that's plenty for watching everything I care about on their platform.
It seems a lot of people just underestimated how many channels they want to watch and how badly they want to watch them.

become better people as a result of practicing it.

This is not the a la carte cable TV that we wanted.
Although if they were all $4.99 per month, then maybe.

It doesn't work like that.
