Cable is dead. Long live the cable bundle. Curious to see the pricing and if the bundle only includes ad tiered options.

    I don’t think ESPN cable would be affordable to most people without bundling it into cable packages

    Then it’s not a viable network.

    their TV is subsidized by every non sports watching household.

    But that’s exactly why people started ditching cable in the first place. They wouldn’t be bundling ESPN with non-sports channels, they would bundle other less popular sports channels with ESPN so they can jack up the price because ESPN. But ESPN doesn’t carry the sports I follow, and I can’t get the network that does without paying double because it’s in a bundle with ESPN.
