    DivineHD: Should it be "a la carte"?

    ADVERTS
    What do you guys think?
    Perhaps, we can send the results of this poll to VOOM.

    I don't want this channel and I don't want my children to watch it. So I think it should "a la carte " so that I have the choice of NEVER order it.

    You can lock out the channel so they can't see it.

    That's true. But my point is that I don't want to PAY for it (directly or indirectly)

    I can think of a number of channels I don't want to pay for. If you belive that, you should make all channels a la carte.

    The answer is yes if that would make my monthly bill cheaper or it saves me from a future increase on my current package

    there should be a third option: I'd rather have RSNs and this channel is a stupid waste of Voom's time, money and energy.

    I don't really want to pay for any of the Cinema 10 channels and it's replacing one of those so I'm pretty much in the same boat as before. Don't want to watch it, don't want to pay for it, but I feel that I'm getting enough value out of the other channels for the price I am paying. Once they raise the price after my price lock ends I may reevaluate the value of the programming package.

    I will almost never watch any channels in the 300 series (sports). So, I am all for all channels being a la carte, as long as it saves me money.

    How about this poll to give to VOOM: "Should ALL channels be a la carte?"

    Or this poll... "Should each 100-block of channels be a la carte?"

    (100 - VOOM Exclusives, 200 - premium movie channels, 300 - sports, 400 - news, 500 - SD or whatever, etc. etc.)
