Cable prices continue to rise because American consumers are forced to pay for hundreds of expensive channels in massive bundles they don’t watch and don’t want.

Consumers should not be forced to pay for 1,000 channel cable bundles when they only watch a handful of them. Fortunately, innovative new service offerings are giving consumers exactly what they want – more choice and flexibility at better prices. New offerings are providing consumers with basic channels and the flexibility to mix and match the additional channel packages best suited to their viewing preferences, whether they are sports, lifestyle, or in-language.

But instead of embracing new services or business models more friendly to consumers, one of the country’s largest video content companies – Disney – is trying to limit consumer choice.

Consumer choice for video content shouldn’t just be a futuristic idea for Disney’s movie “Tomorrowland.” It’s time companies like Disney think of their customers and adjust to how we view video – whether it’s ABC or ESPN, whether it’s through cable, a smart TV, on a tablet or smartphone, or online. Consumers should be able to choose the channels they want to watch—not waste their money on bloated bundles. 

Please sign the petition and join us in urging Disney and other major content companies to make it easier for consumers to watch what they want, where they want, and when they want.
