said by RadioDoc :The real story is how many of those are still around after the prices go back to normal. Ask Sirius XM Radio about promo subscriber churn... Relatively high given that either 1) The consumer has no equal alternative choice so either keep the services at the regular price, or downgrade, but maintain service with the company; 2) When threatening to cancel, or even downgrade the service, the cable company offers the customer another, similiar or even better promotion that keeps them.
Dare I say that if you currently have 2 or more services with your cable provider, and you are paying regular price for both of those services, then you aren't playing their game right. |

If cable is rolling out more new service, that would be the largest skew for them. |
