Makes sense, most people watching cable TV probably aren't watching cartoon network.

They will of course put the price of the core package down now, right? Due to the reduction in total value of the bundle? They wouldn't expect people to pay the same for less?

Right..?

Yeah, right, I'm sure they'll do that for ESPN too. Sports are so freaking expensive it's probably like half the price of the bill for something I never watched. They probably will though, everything will be an add on soon, the only standard channels will be like Lifetime, QVC and Fox News.

I don't know what lineup my parents have from them but CN had already been removed a while back, sucks for everyone else now too I guess
