When I lived in Mansfield, Ohio and we had Adelphia (before they sold the area to Time Warner) Adelphia gave us a choice and said it was a law. We could take one of their "option" packages or we could pay for each channel individually and pick and choose what we wanted.
In the long run it was cheaper to just take the package and delete the channels you didn't watch from your tv. I don't see that it would change much because cable companies make a lot of money on selling the cable company commercial time, and the more channels they can show those ads on the more they can charge, regardless if anyone watches them.

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
