Like I said in a different response, cord cutting makes perfect sense for viewers as long as it's only a few viewers. The production of the content the cord cutters are watching is being subsidized by people who haven't cut the cord yet. That content might not be created in the first place if everyone went the cord-cutting route.

What makes you say that? Cord cutters still pay for the content they consume. All that is happening is we are trading one middle man for another (ABC, CBS, FOX for Netflix, Amazon, Hulu ) Cord cutter content prices will rise as the balance of power shifts.
