30. The only way IWT can make an impact is if it's on basic cable everywhere..
...And last I heard, they were only planning on including it on "digital cable systems" at the moment. That means you would have to pay $60 a month to Comcast just to see it. I imagine the cost is just as ridiculous with other cable companies (unless you live in a city that has it's own cable company, which usually run a little bit cheaper)

This is getting off topic, but what is needed in the cable TV industry is the ability for a customer to choose a certain number of channels for a low price, then additional channels for a higher price and so forth. The only reason the corporate fucks won't do it is because they KNOW they couldn't sell 6 shopping channels and FAUX News to anybody.
