FLASH: Time Warner Cable WILL drop 19 Viacom channels on New Year's Day!

DUMP TWC. Let them know that if you can get bent over for crappy delivery of programs viewed through garbage boxes with POS software, THEY SHOULD pay for the programming. And it's not like they are generous with HD either.
Everyone should dump them and let them know why, and maybe our children s' children will benefit. Gos knows we won"t. At least not in this lifetime.

Why does VIACOM offer so many channels, when they have so many repeats of either there own programs or former OTA network shows And exchange programming between their own networks. The VIACOM cable network that gets the majority of ratings is  Nickelodeon. Almost all the rest of the VIACOM, channels don't do well in the ratings and are jusr revenue producers, as many cable channels are.

As ad revenue slumps, you'll see less channels.  For years, we've seen an increase in channel offerings as media companies tried to get those niche markets.  Now, with advertisers only willing to spend for the biggest audiences and ad rates dropping, all the extra channels aren't justifiable.
