Did you know that ESPN is the most expensive channel in your cable package? That channel alone costs you $6-$7 a month, whether you watch it or not. That is the magic of bundling—the cable companies throw 150 channels together and charge you for the whole shebang. So what we are seeing now, with things like Netflix, is unbundling. You probably saw that HBO is offering itself on a standalone basis online. This is bad for cable TV, but like I said, people still need to pay for Internet (which will undoubtedly get more expensive). So who is the real loser here? Um, who owns ESPN? Disney.///////////// C&P from the view.. Ignorance is bliss |
