[QUOTE="Charleston Mountie, post: 129526259, member: 1427666"] Cable companies, however, know exactly what every set is watching. They now down to the second when you tuned in, how long you stayed tuned and whether or not you channel surfed during the commercials. They know if you recorded it on Tivo. If they see a target number of their subscribers NOT watching a station, they then can bargain harshly with a provider in the next cycle. If they still retain that channel, they will eat into the cost they pay or get something else for a bargain as a part of the package. ESPN demands that all carriers include it in their basic package at an eye-watering $7 dollars per month. Cable companies are now hitting subscribers with bandwidth fees while also reducing the allowable "free" bandwidth each month in case subscribers try to ala-carte their viewing choices by streaming on the web. The conference networks are doomed in the present frame. Because ESPN can not see the next technology choice in streaming its conference networks it will go all in with the BTN in the next round and the Big Ten will score a hefty take home. The cost of ESPN going out on that limb means that ACC hope of ever getting a network officially die that day. Only someone in rose-colored glasses believes there was ever any chance of ACCN or the payout if their isn't one. ESPN is going to give the ACC absolutely nothing for holding up the network except excuses. The only hope the Big-12 has for a network is somehow rolling the LHN into one and as a Mountaineer I hope that never happens. A network provides a few million circa to each member and WVU makes 2-3 times now. Texas, of course makes 15 million from the LHN. The real issue in all of this is that there are those that state an ACCN is the foundation of the ACC GoR and that without, the GoR is good intentions and little else. If that is how it ends up being, then schools like BC will not survive the sinking ship and will be washed up on a shore called AAC or CUSA or something just as secondary. I can only hope so. The funny thing is that BC has no options. They are not academically good enough for the Big Ten. They are too far north for the SEC and the Big-12 would take UConn before BC. That makes me feel nice. [/QUOTE]
