Broadcast television of a handful of syndicated network channels, yes. There are a lot of stations for which you have to pay for cable, satellite, etc. acces to see... such as Comedy Central and Sci Fi channel.
Those are services. The rules are very different for services and FCC licensed channels. There are many things that your TV might receive thru cable and satellite like music or pay-per-view movies or even interactive tv like webtv or internet. All of those have very different rules.

In fact, in the case of THOSE services you are very limited in saying "I pay for and have a right". The aired channels will give you alot of rights. The private services can be much more restricted.

Just the other day I was thinking about Radio without the annoying inane announcers or ads. Wouldn't it be great if you just had song after song, with a minimum interruption to say what will be played for next hour. Of course the Radio station has to make a living. Is there such a thing as pay radio?.
