A LA CARTE - which channels would you choose?

Oct 31, 2008 2 Replies

Sirius-XM will soon be allowing their radio listeners the ability to join an A La Carte program: 50 channels for just $7. If your Cable or Satellite providers gave you the option of a la carte, which channels would you choose? For me it would be:


- The local stations



  • SciFi Channel
  • History
  • TCM

And that about covers it. I'm not sure how much the final pricetag would be, but it'd certainly be less than the current $60+tax Comcast charges my city. Since Sirius-XM charges $7 for their a la carte program, maybe television a la carte would be two or three times that amount: $14. Or $21. (shrug).


wow, i thought this group was about modems, hence the name of the group.

It is. The idiot that started those threads, SFTV_troy, cross-posted them to four cable-tv-related groups, as well as this one. I'm guessing that he/she/it did it because of the .cable in this group's name.
