Since 1994 we receive 150 more TV channels and but only watch an additional 7. Progress?
The number of TV channels the average person can receive in their homes has increased 375% (189.1-40.4= 148.7/40.4 X 100)
The number the average person actually watches has increased by 72% (17.5-10.2 = 7.3/10.2 X 100).
To put in in simpler terms, we get about 150 more channels but only watch an additional 7, since 1994.
