For us that don't watch very much TV, why do we have to pay so much? I watch about 10 different channels, but I pay as much as those watching all the sports channels,  Spanish speaking channels, etc. I'm on a fixed income.  I've bundled phone with Internet with Centurylink. who charges me about $100.  I use both a lot.  But AT&T charges me $100 to watch 10 to 15 channels and not all day, but evening mostly.  WHY?  You have a basic package  that doesn't include some of the channels I like.  Why can't we choose the channels that we like and pay on that basis? I do like your music channels;  however, I only listen to a few of them:  Easy listening, smooth jazz, classical, and big band.  Another way you might divide up groups of channels is by age.  Old people like me like reruns such as channels 2 and 3 and Hallmark, and big band music.  Why don't you call in some of your customers and have a brain storming session and find out what they like to watch and come up with some unique plans  BE CREATIVE, AND AT THE SAME TIME HELP OUT YOUR CUSTOMERS VIEWING HABITS AND POCKET BOOKS.
