That's not really the cable companies fault. What happens is a lot of these channels are owned by the same entity. Like a few years ago, Viacom wanted more for MTV. So they threatened if TWC didn't pay them more they would pull all viacom channels. They scroll crap across the screen saying TWC, DirecTv etc wants to take MTV and all these other channels off the air. But it's them that are trying to hold their channels hostage and threaten to remove them. They force channels on companies and force them to package them. The only people that end up losing out is the consumer. They usually negotiate and MOST of the time they end up meeting somewhere in the middle.
