If they are going to do this then the CRTC has to throw us a bone and finally come down hard on the tied selling practices (read "bundles") of the cable companies.
The reason my bill is so high right now is that Shaw requires you to buy three teirs of SD channels before the two teirs of HD programming (the latter being the only thing I am interested in watching these last three years). Despite numerous complaints about this over the years the CRTC has never come down against it they way they can (and ought to).
