Of Course, its for wanting More Money ...
And everyone that uses that as an excuse, so we can afford to keep the same services, product that you have Always had ....
I'm sure its true for the most part, actors want more money, writers want more money, so and so wants more money, it doesn't cost more for what is already there .... its greed, they do it because they CAN .
It will Never stop.
My D* bill started at $ 40 in the late 90's.
Now you can add about a $100 to that ... yes, things have been upgraded in some years, but mostly, its CEO's and others like that, that like Several Billion dollar bonusses ...
IF you giving out those type of bonusses out then you being Very Greedy with the customer.

The ESPN GameDay Tour Bus uses DIRECTV. Looks like multiple HR24's, H24/25's with RC6x series remotes. It's probably a mobile RV account because in a previous video you could see WABC-TV 7 NY on the TV in the background. I'm actually surprised ESPN doesn't have DISH as a backup/alternate option for the GameDay Bus especially for in-motion HD channels.
In the meantime with the dispute, Kirk is using YouTube TV.

Of course he would take a shot at DTV as he is being paid by abc/espn/disney.I guess customers should pay more so him and fowler can live a bit more comfortably.....
DirecTV sent letters to ACC, Big 12, and SEC to help with Disney carrier dispute
DirecTV sent letters to the commissioners of the ACC, Big 12, and SEC, asking for their help in resolving the conflict with Disney/ESPN.

Can almost feel a tangible shift in the market with this dispute, and you can see signs of this shift elsewhere:

I do wonder, if Venu launched on time ( end of August), or if ESPN’s streaming service ( scheduled for next year) were available, how many would have picked those options.
Interesting ...DirecTV sent letters to ACC, Big 12, and SEC to help with Disney carrier dispute

After reading thru this ... WHAT do they want the different leagues CEO's and what not to do ?
They sent this to them, for what reason ????
They didn't ask for anything ... not sure what they were wanting.
I have done work at ESPN and they do have both DIRECTV and DISH in the building.
Yes I think this is going to cause a shift. DTV does not appear to want to give in to the status quo. They know once ESPN has it's own service up, DTV is not needed for most people. The distributor becomes useless other than making it easier to use in 1 app and potentially some price discounts.
Disney doesn't want to do that yet. It would take their guaranteed revenue away and make them earn their money.
With the shift to remove original programing, other than cheap reality shows, from all cable channels, most of these channels are worthless. Sports is the only thing people cannot get elsewhere at this moment. I may suspend my DTV account in a few weeks when the Youtube TV trial is up and not ever come back to Satellite. DTV knows people won't be coming back if they are happy with Youtube / Hulu live. It is a lot cheaper without the RSN fees, DVR, receiver, taxes, etc.
If you need RSNs, unfortunately you are going to be fleeced.

RSNs do not have much life left in them.
With the news released yesterday, that Cable/Satellite have only 50 Million subscribers (and that includes all of DirecTV) left.
Then you add in about 1 Million Fubo subscribers, but you minus Dish.that leaves the availability of RSNs to 45 Million nationwide
Then how many of that 45 Million have packages that do not carry the RSNs, like Entertainment, or Spectrum least expensive package, Comcast is only offering the RSNs on their highest tier.
So that drops it down another 10 Million subscribers at least, so only about 35 Million are receiving the RSN and with that, the per sub fee.
In 2017, about 100 Million Subscribers were paying the per sub fee for the RSNs.
