Oh whoa are the many who love Fox TV. And oh whoa are the many who get their cable TV via Time Warner. Hey wait a minute, isn’t Fox 7 broadcast via the airwaves in Austin? Oh, I guess digital TV did away with our TV’s actually receiving TV, unless we’ve upgraded recently. What, for American Idol? Geesh.

Don’t let these TV networks hold your TV hostage. Together, we just might make a difference in what America pays for TV.” What do you think? Do we care what TWC pays for network programming? Or should we let them take it off TWC. I’m with that satelite company now, but I’m none to happy with them either.

The idea that consumers can get good content to watch from free and cheap Web services like Hulu, Netflix, iTunes, Boxee, and MLB.TV — and watch it comfortably on their TV sets — is not good for cable companies.

Congressman Eric Massa (D), who represents Rochester, was an early opponent of the plan and claimed victory Thursday. “We’re delighted that commonsense prevailed,” Massa said, calling the cancellation a “true grassroots victory.”
