<p>[QUOTE="Whizb4ng, post: 2935667, member: 54140"]It may very well have started to cater to the niche market and there is nothing wrong with letting the mainstream channels deliver that content to the masses. Where does the money come from to maintain a niche channel though? It isn't a publicly funded channel so someone has to pay for it. The problem with a niche channel it seems is exactly that. If your niche market isn't putting enough money into sustaining the business and making a reasonable profit in the eyes of the parent company something is going to have to change or it is going to get cut. Would you prefer a History channel that plays documentaries occasionally (which I believe they still do) with a bunch of other stuff mixed in or no History channel at all? The unfortunate reality is that when there is money involved the push seems to be to make more of it and to make more of it they have to appeal to more people. I am not saying this is a good thing just that it is what it is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
