Re: pot meet kettle There are several other important points here.
1. Sunday Ticket is a true exclusive. Only one owner (NFL) and one seller (DTV). Neither CSN Philly nor MSG and MSG+ HD feeds are exclusive.
2. Sunday Ticket is an out of market package that has zero impact on local markets. Nobody misses their local team because they can't or won't buy ST.
3. Everyone who's saying the ST should be sold to all distributors misses out on the fact that NFL doesn't want to. They want one seller to keep the price high (if they sold to everyone they'd get less in total than they do now) and to keep network affiliates from getting angry.
It amazes me how little understanding of these issues people are willing to exhibit. Comcast is using a smokescreen by bringing this into play hoping the FCC and perhaps even the courts will be just as uninformed. Something that';s not all that likely. |
