I can understand not wanting to support the btn, but no matter what service you use, you are supporting them
What you guys fail to understand is the level of support via a national satellite service is small compared to the cable companies serving the Big 10 states. The difference was an order of magnitude and the revenue from the local cable providers is a big difference maker. The cost for out of region providers and for national satellite providers is something like 10 cents and I'm not sure if they are forced to take it on the basic package like they require with the local cable providers.
The issue isn't the impact it has on my financial situation. I can afford it. The issue is the revenue it generates for the BTN and our main rival simply because you are a subscriber to their basic cable service.
I keep posting on this topic because it's clear nobody understands what is going on here.
