re: ESPN's future and the SEC Network money

ESPN live events makes money. Their non live programming doesn't. Disney can't afford to lose or sell ESPN, because it makes money. Several of their other holdings do not. If they went straight to streaming, they would make money, but not what they make from cable, who charges for it, even if you don't want it. I for one would drop Sling in a heartbeat if I could only stream live sports. I think they may offer a streaming option, but with only sports that wouldn't effect cable.

I think many would.
As for cable, it is dying at an increasing rate. Subscriber levels are at the 1980 levels and dropping fast.
The question is how much would you be willing to pay and how many months of the year would you subscribe.
I think the problem they would have is many would drop them for most of the year and the economics would make it hare if people only subscribe for 4-6 months a year.
