Yes, as the manager of a cable TV system in Oklahoma, cable rates will rise once again. We have received notice from all programmers that their rates will go up, some of them major price increases, so let the bitching begin. Some programmers, like HBO, have already raised their rate twice in the past year. Over $3 of your cable bill goes just for one channel of ESPN, and their rate goes up based on a percentage of the previous rate, so as rates get higher, the rate of increase gets bigger each year, lots of fun, yes?
