TV "low cost"? I know people whose cable bill is over $100 a month!

Its actually expensive when you figure in that you are paying for commercials, too. Remember the early days of paid-for television without the commercial interruptions. Everyone glorified it over broadcast (ahem, commercial) television.

Now many people are paying $50-150 every month to watch commercials. Yeah, that's cheap. Of course, its less than what I pay into the county public school system every month. :)
