GigaOM reports that cable TV subscriber count dropped in the United States for just the second time in history. 500,000 less subscribers in Q3.
So naturally cable execs are looking to lower prices to lure people back. Yeahhhhh, surrrrrre. Just kidding, prices going up to maintain profit trajectories. You know, the way small town stores fight Wal Mart by laying off staff and raising prices. Except in this case Wal-Mart is the Al Gore's invention, that damn world wide web thingy.
Seriously if I wasn't a sports fan I wouldn't go to the trouble of having cable and I am sure you know lotsa people who are the same. Atdhe.net, surfthechannel, veetle, hello; cable, goodbye.
