Re: Phillies Baseball said by LHVnobball :I'm no sports fan but even if I was it's hard to justify all customers pay for TCN year round for 20 games. Just look at the complaints on here fornrates going up. Carrying TCN doesnt help that cause. With the rates going up, there is even more reason now more than ever for RCN to keep its customers happy or they will leave. I've said it before that I know that adding TCN may not pay on paper, but it is inevitable that RCN must eventually acquiesce and add this channel or they will gradually lose too many customers in the PA markets to Comcast or Verizon. For the record TCN also airs several Flyers games.
I've also mentioned before how embarrassing it is when you have company over expecting to watch the game and you realize too late that it's on TCN! You can't even explain that RCN provides a great service at a great value when they can just get up and watch the game at my next door neighbor's. The only reason that I'm still here is that they offered me a long term deal that is too good to pass up for now.
I am frustrated because I want to see RCN succeed. I've been a big RCN fan since they knocked on my door and asked me to become a customer. I've gotten to know several of their employees. However, I know that they cannot succeed in this market long term without this channel. |
