The remaining a-la-carte channels can be had via c-band packager NPS. NPS works with Motorolla's access control center to act as a go between for the programmers (Time Warner, Scripps, Discovery Communications, etc.) and customers. Individual channels can be purchased a-la-carte, mini-packages centered around a programmers offerings, via pick 5, pick 6 or pick 7 channels and full packages. Maybe big cable and the small dish satellite companies need to take a lesson from their older C-Band packaging counterparts.
