OK, each channel is $1.99 a month.
$2 per channel x 20 channels = $40 a month.

Considering that the 20 channels are channels that I will actually watch. Sure. I'll pay that.

Right now, I'm paying 40 a month for 40 out of 50 channels that are worthless to me. Like the Trinity channel for instance. Spike! That's a great channel!
