Cost Of Providing Broadband Dropping > Offer channels a la carte

Re: Offer channels a la carte

By "these kind of negotiations" I meant pols getting involved when cable companies try to force content providers to unbundle. That is what we were discussing after all.

The link you provided is apparently a situation where Comcast wanted the Nationals team to break their contract with MASN so the game could be televised on Comcast SportsNet. Not quite the same as negotiating with content providers concerning bundling channels. »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mid-Atlant···_lawsuit

The pols were not worried about the media companies "crucify(ing) them" in that example. I really doubt politicians fear a regional sports channel owned by the Orioles.
