I don't like the idea as it is nothing more than something to occupy minds that have other things to do. Worse, citizens do NOT get free cable. What's up with that? Food and sleeping space for the incarcerated I understand. More than that, I am a strong proponent of preventing abuse of prisoners by guards and most especially by other prisoners. That said, pleasures or even distractions are not supposed to be on the paid-for menu.
.
There is, I hope, one saving grace for such a thing and that is that it can be denied in the event of a prisoner not cooperating - or something worse. It is hard to produce incentive in people who literally have nothing.
