We already have a battle brewing....
In San Antonio, TX a local ABC affiliate KSAT is wanting to charge Time-Warner to rebroadcast the local channel on the cable network.

Each is blaming the other.

My Take is that I don't care if KSAT (ABC) is gone because I think ABC stinks anyway.

Also Time-Warner is telling all of it's customers that they can always go to ABC.COM if they want to view it.

I understand both sides but I don't want a higher cable bill and if I really want to watch local channels that are trying to extort money from TW then I'll put in an Antenna and a coaxial switch. That way I don't even have to pay TW for the HD content that they normally don't provide in the standard package.
