<i>I see cable TV going the way of the dedicated phone line - a bundled benefit you get for a very small fee on top of the primary benefit</i><p>In my region, it&#x27;s already cheaper to get a package with cable TV than just internet. I have friends that don&#x27;t even take the cable set of of the shipping box.  I assume Comcast&#x27;s per subscriber cost to cable channels is lower than the ads revenue from artificially inflating subscriber numbers.
