couple of points
I am not a big fan of TBN, but sometimes they have someone on I think is worth listening to and check it out. I like TD Jakes for instance, but in general, I almost never watch it. I suppose it would depend on what the cost was.
Second point, I think many like the a la carte idea because it would prevent having objectionable material in the home by virtue of just ordering cable. I would love that myself being the father of 4 children, and some of it is probably wise to keep away from myself too. Some stuff is a waste of time at a minimum, and certainly as the Bible says "the eyes of man are never full" (paraphrased). So just flipping around, you are going to see stuff that doesn't help one keep your mind focussed on things above.
Having the option just to keep out the channels you don't want in your home for whatever reason is a good thing, imo.

Re: couple of points
Then, do you favor more choice or not?
