Comcast hard negotiator
There is an adversarial relationship between content providers and cable satellite and other media sources .
Comcast wants to limit carriage rates and otherwards increased expenses who will be passed to customers ; but they are pressured to keep rates down due to steaming and new technologies .
In this world va tech and accn is small potatoes . Disney controls almost 40 percent of the cable content . Between abc networks espn networks ; Disney networks ae networks history channel and National Geographic station and fx suites of stations will be negotiated as one package . Comcast simply cannot ignore that much content and Disney owning that much will force all or nothing . The big contract is next year; so it’s pay me now or pay me later ..then disney plus suite along with espn plus the steaming version is doing well. Remember Disney owns all film inventory 20th century fox Disney and Lucas films and the only access to his inventory willl be through Disney ..
Yeah we might not see a game now or then but eventually it will happen
