User uid://961675 writes in to note that a dispute between Time Warner Cable and Viacom may result in Time Warner Cable customers losing Nickelodeon, MTV, Comedy Central and 16 other channels unless the two sides can reach an agreement. Time Warner Cable tells the Associated Press that Viacom is demanding programming rate increases of between 22 percent and 36 percent per channel, a hike Time Warner calls “exorbitant.” “Basically we’re trying to hold the line for our customer,” insists the cable company. But the operator goes on to note that part of the dispute is that Viacom won’t share revenue from online video.

Update: NewTeeVee offers a list of where impacted customers can get much of the content they may be losing for free, online.
