No, I'm comparing how two industries package lots of things that everyone necessarily might not want individually to bring down costs overall. Muggsy Bogues is not a meerkat, I'm sorry.
but the cost's never go down. When has a channel bundle ever lowered your cable bill? That "savings" is only just a spin to explain the unsustainable business models of content providers. The more channels a network umbrella "provides", the more ad revenue it can generate to meet rising costs and sustain (for another quarter) it's profit margin. The costs of that unsustainable business model (there can only be so many channels before equilibrium) are passed on to the cable companies, who pass it along to subscribers.
