1. The Duke Posted: March 10, 2023 at 04:13 PM (#6120096)If I didn't know any better, it was as if they decided to act in accordance with the cable companies by going out of their way to create a situation that cutting the cord was going to be problematic for the users.
"They" the DBacks or "they" MLB or "they" Bally/Sinclair?
They = Bally Sinclair(or more accurately the fox sports network, bally mostly just acquired the company after Fox made the demands) . Fox Sports Midwest had a perfectly good working model with Sling TV and others and decided to require massive price increases for them to be carried, this wasn't the typical let's up the cost 10% type of stuff, but it was more or less double the cost type of thing (if not more) they got greedy knowing full and well that they were a major part of the subscription service, while ignoring the fact that the company still needs to make a profit and keep the overall cost down to be competitive. (Fox Sports was still selling commercials, and having more homes to present the commercials was going to be nearly as profitable as the subscription costs anyway)
We need to reform corporate governance if we have any hope of having a better economic system in or out of baseball watching.
