They are satellite systems and they are playing the same games as the
cable companies. They bundle channels in a way that you get one or two
good channels and a bunch of crap. They have a habit of splitting the
good channels up so that you have to get 2 or 3 other bundles in order
to get those same good channels and fill the bundles with crap channels
you never watch.
