Never had a problem with the founder and the first cable TV Provider in the USA Service Electric Cable TV , a family run business

We are actually one of the few areas in the U.S. where you have a choice of Cable TV, either Service Electric, or RCN. I don't think it helps though as they both charge nearly the same rates.
Collusion?

Anyway, it would be nice if the FCC , Cable TV, Satellite, and Fios would allow freedom of choice. In other words, allow the user to choose those channels you really want, instead of being forced to pay for lots of garbage, that we don't want. "Pay per channel" sounds good

However, I would never want to go back to the days of the rotor antenna, where you had to actually climb on the roof with tin foil...those over 50 know what I'm talking about.

On the subject of Satellite, I have heard good, with lots of channels and great picture, along with the bad as in "breakups" with bad weather

PS: Dean, very enjoyable comment.
