Anyone thinks that Disney is not going to link ESPN or Disney channel to everyother crap channel they have or that Viacom will not threaten to withhold Nick if you dont pick up MTV is living in la la land.

Content providers are in driver's seat... You're exactly and that (the content providers) is the source of the problem, not the cable or satellite companies. This group sued the wrong people.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-You-want-to-see-a-real-fight-23212636 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 12:45:19 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/You-want-to-see-a-real-fight-23212398

Content providers are in driver's seat because they know everytime negotiations are up they can just run a scroll saying that x channel will go dark on x day if evil cable/sat company doesn't fall in line with their $$$$$$ demands. Cable/sat companies immediately get thousands of phone calls demanding that channel stay on the air and everybody gets screwed. Happens every couple years.
