[QUOTE="orientalnc, post: 949297, member: 1199"] Disney does not reveal much about ESPN in their financial statements, but the number of cable subscribers is rapidly decreasing. I think that is true overall, but YouTube TV is increasing. ESPN is trying to make up for that loss with higher monthly affiliate fees. There is a ceiling on that and we may be seeing it now with increased cord cutting. At the same time, ESPN+ is gaining subscribers, so the streaming model make take hold. But, paying for unbundled streaming content will be very expensive. An example, CBS might charge more for streaming March Madness by forcing you subscribe to more than just the tournament. And the CFP will almost certainly be outside any conference streaming subscription. Then there is the NFL. Will the NFL let you subscribe to single games or single teams or for the entire season? As [USER=2426]@RonJohn[/USER] pointed out above, no one knows for certain what the universe for sports TV will be in ten years. But, I am almost certain it will not be very similar to our current status quo. [/QUOTE]
