How 'bout offer me a package that doesn't have all the crap channels I won't ever watch?
Nah, that would make sense. 
That would cost MORE than what you're paying now.
Unless you don't watch sports (in which case, yeah, you probably would save money a la carte), most of those "channels I won't ever watch" like the home shopping, crooked televangelist and infomercial channels actually PAY to be on your lineup, lowering your bill. Quite a few others are free.
