This is an example of market forces at work.

In case you're not being scarcastic: There is no such thing as these vague "market forces" you proclaim.
No. I wasn't being sarcastic.

Yes. It is precisely what I said it was.

The existing market wasn't being responsive to the wants and needs of their customers so the underground market sprung up to meet those needs.

It's not that people aren't willing to pay for these things, it's that they want to have a convenient way of doing so.

John Q Customer is not going to pay for Cable+Internet, Netflix, Hulu, CBS All Access, Amazon Prime and HBO Go.

Media company green caused this.
