[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 233613, member: 2426"] That's not the way ESPN works their deals. They require that the channels be carried in all but the FCC required bare minimum packages. For the SEC Network, the estimate is that they charge $1.40 per subscriber for the channel in the SEC media market ant $0.25 for the channel outside of the market. ESPN cannot make money unless they are able to get a large amount of money from people who have no interest in their programming. If the rumors are true that they are waiting until 2019, it will be so they can hold the carriers hostage with the ESPN channel in order to require carriage of the ACC Network in the lower tier packages at a premium price.
