Cord Cutting Growing Cable Companies Deny Facts

It's funny how most major cable operators are denying that people are canceling cable service. The most recent industry numbers show clear evidence that more and more people are getting rid of their cable service.

The leap in technology of streaming video online and the quality of over the air digital channels has had a major impact on the cable companies. If the cable companies want to stop losing subscribers they need to introduce a plan that allows consumers to pick the channels and stop forcing packages that force consumers to pay for channels they would never watch.

A new generation of consumers is growing up watching video online and have no emotional attachment to cable. As more people learn how to obtain shows online the cord cutting number will continue. The cable companies are now trying to limit bandwidth and making it more expensive to gain video content online, but cable cutter know that there are many other sources such as DVD's and over the air to fight back. You can charge more for bandwidth, but you will not gain back true cord cutters that have been disappointed by the cable companies over the years.
