You would be paying way more than $2 per channel.
The only reason channels are as cheap as they are per subscriber is because of how many subscribers there are.
If everything was a la carte, subscribers for an individual channel would go WAY down.

Thy is Sling deal is pretty good, but it is as cheap as it is because they already make so much money with regular cable and satellite.
If the whole system was a la carte, this Sling deal wouldn't be possible at the price it is.
They are trying to pick up the relatively few who have already cut the cord who otherwise wouldn't be paying them.

I understand that, but that matters little if I am only paying $20. I am willing to pay more per channel to just have those channels.

If channels are $2 a piece then wouldn't it take less subscribers to reclaim the same margins?

I don't want everything a la carte. Just give me less crap. Give me those 10 stations offered by Sling and I will pay you more per station. Its simple. I am now paying $80 for 90 channels that I don't watch.
Even I only watch 7 out of those 10 channels offered I am still saving money.
