Does sling understand that if they don't re up with ESPN that they'll be dropped bigly?

The boycott has worked. Go woke go broke.

Would you pay that price? If they sign you will be paying 20+ more a month

Why would you be mad about a cable provider standing up to Disney hiking prices

so we like ESPN now?
ummm, no. their original programming and content pretty much sucks, barring some of their 30/30
it just so happens that they broadcast a lot of big time games. not rocket science

They have other ways around it, such as livestream east

I literally re-upped with Sling today JUST before they announced no ESPN. Lit $25 on fire.

No, but if I can't watch the sec I'll light anything on fire

There has to be an option for the guy that can’t stream everything. For whatever reason. I’m that guy. Watched the LSU game on my phone tonight even though I have 4 TV’s 50” or bigger scattered in my house. fricking glad we won but pisses

Stream it on a laptop and hook it to the tv with an hdmi cable.

We’re not far away from a network that relies on ad revenue to just start broadcasting for free.
It’s just a race to see who does it first. Give it time.

They will call it CBS, ABC, NBC, or Fox. Probably transmit it wirelessly over vhf then change to uhf.
To the op the question is how much price increase can sling take before they lose their business. I'm sure Disney is asking a huge increase. Disney I'm sure pulled the channels, since dish would have been glad to keep them on and paying the old rates

I shouldn’t have to stream it to my laptop and then watch it there. Or attach it to my Tv. I pay good money for a service. When you don’t provide me with ALL the service this contract states, that you are charging me for, then we have an issue

You’re the sucker then for paying for something you don’t get or something you incorrectly thought you were getting. Lol
Watch it on a stream for free.

I hear you. I was just giving you another option to watching it on your phone.

I’m at hotel and couldn’t watch LSU. Was annoying

I canceled Sling today. I only subscribed literally for just college football. They’ll be out of business by next weekend.

How do you not realize you're a bargaining chip for these corporations to squeeze more money out of you?

Does sling also know, the more they raise their rates, people will move on?
dish dug in, lost certain channels, and people find other ways to get them. some stay, some leave.
cable and satellite had their chance years ago to stand up to the shite channels and channel providers.
No one wants 99% of the channels on their service, but are forced to take the on, because 99.999% of channels are owned by 3-4 companies. (espn/disney, NBC, CBS, Discovery,etc).
