Last week the New York Cine Radio hosts had a fairly raucous discussion about some of the new streaming services and how they might lead to the decline of cable. With the average cable bill floating at well over a hundred bucks a month it is not hard to wonder why consumers are starting to rebel against cable providers.
The poor customer service offered by these cable providers makes their industry ripe to be digitally disrupted. This is especially true when they bundle tons of low value channels that no one really wants with one or two great channels in order to charge a premium price.
