Thoughts on CBSAA as we approach 9/24: Cuts out the middle-man. People are used to cable packages and such. Model is changing because…. People expect things for free nowadays, but people have to put food on the table. Ironically, it’s the “DVR Generation” that skips commercials that caused this. Stuff’s gotta get paid for.
