A La Carte TV – Gary Vaynerchuk Wants It Too!

by Andy Brudtkuhl on October 12, 2009

Why pay $7/mo for Lifetime? Why pay for stuff you don’t want? In his recent FOWA session, Gary talks about the market desire for a la carte TV (aka pay for only what you watch) and how the cable industry is F’d. Gary says the equivalent of the cable company business is like going into McDonald’s and ordering a cheeseburger only to have the cashier say you’ll have to purchase the whole menu.

The question is – how will the model work and who will get us there the quickest? Boxee? Netflix? Amazon? Microsoft?
