Mad Men is a Beautiful Thing That You Can Own

I'm not sure what iTune's cut is (at least 30%) but based on the TV
ratings, the show Mad Men would barely be viable even if all it's
regular 3.5 million American viewers forked over $3 every week to buy
it.

Man Men depends or cross subsidisation via subscriptions. People who
pay for AMC because the channel they really want is part of the same
package. Same applies for Netflix.

I don't have cable and love the show too much to wait for it to show
up on Netflix. So I pay $3 a week for the HD privilege. I'd be happy
to pay less if iTunes Canada had a rental option, but as a result, I
own a beautiful thing.
