But not on basic cable. I rarely watch shows live but never miss breaking bad (usually watch it later in the evening or the next day). If shaw cancels AMC I'd be furious, to the point I would complain. If enough people do that, Shaw picks it back up and has to pay AMC $0.50 per subscriber or whatever the fee is, so DVR numbers are important.
DVR numbers are not important for Network TV (NBC, CBS, FOX, ABC).
