^ This. There's probably about five or six channels I watch on a daily basis depending on what happens to be on at the time. Then there's the 200+ channels I don't watch and most likely never will. But like anything else its all about the money, cable and satellite TV providers think that they'll lose profit if they let the customer pick and choose so they make everyone get one of those "package" deals.
