MORNING

Thanks for the report, sir

Is there a US equivalent. There is one I have seen promoted and I would like someone to check it out to see if it is legit.

If they want to end piracy stop screwing us over and overcharging us for shit your price is their prices I mean is ridiculous uncalled for

I'm going to posibly join a NFL subscription of some sort if I can find one without any black outs for my local team.

The biggest question in my mind is what is going to be the impact between COVID-19, streaming companies losing millions or billions and this writer & actor strike?

Content and quality is still greatly reduced from the effects of COVID-19. Meanwhile, companies that are streaming are realizing that there may not be the light at the end of the tunnel, and I would not be surprised if the strike ends up being much worse than COVID-19 to the industry.

Oddly enough, the only light at the end of the tunnel that I can foresee for good quality content is pure AI driven. The cost and production time will be easily manageable and profitable. No doubt it'll have an impact on a lot of people's lives in the acting industry.

WELL IF THESE CABLE COMPANIES PRICES ARE SO HIGH IS CRIMINAL

Do not be surprised when streaming services are taxed no differently than conventional cable companies are today. If these revenue streams dry up then states and the federal government will simply assess taxes to its replacement. So personally, I'm in no rush to watch and wait in glee for conventional cable companies to go defunct.

ESPN app please need it now

Thats dumb to be so crazy about up tv apps and such when most ppl use the initernet over a tv a tv isnt the new thing in town anymore how old are these ppl 100 plus or what

As far as predicting if streaming companies will increase or decrease their numbers, the best reality answer is "yes." Personally, I'm coming full circle to the point where I have little to no desire to watch so-called "live TV." Sports are the only exception and as soon as ESPN offers a separate live option I'm canceling YouTube TV the very same day!

Personally for me I treat Hulu ad free as a DVR service for the majority of the shows I watch. And the handful that I liked on CW have either gone down some rabbit hole or have been canceled so that network is in its death spirals at least to me. CW self-destruction reminds me of the Sci-Fi (SyFy) channel. Personally I loathe "Reality," "Game," and "Talk" genre shows which is taking over television as scripted shows are being phased out due to cost.

Tidal Music got in some serious trouble by pushing MQA technology which turned out to be a sham. Hopefully T-Mobile will start offering YouTube Premium with YouTube Music as a replacement, personally to me that's tops on my priority list to keep.

Just dropped dish

Charter is horrible. No matter what you do, other than barebones, your bill will eventually go up to $200-250. T-Mobile is horrible also, dropped them and went back to straight talk. I use Frontier fiber and got a deal of YouTube Tv for two years at $45.
ESPN has an app, its called ESPN+.

Can you not see what looks like smoke or a contrail on the upper right side of your head of every video you make? Please stop it. I can't be the only one! It starts just above the orange "news"
STOP IT!

I paid so much money on cable for what I now know was so very little programming. Now streaming has just opened up so much at one third the cost.

It's going to get to a point that you can't just cancel so easily without staying for a certain amount of time. You may have to stay for a few months before canceling. I'm just waiting for a service to do this.

We'll wait to drop our cable until this battle and the local channels negotiation work out. We are good either way and don't sacrifice our entertainment too much because it's important and we use it.

Question Will DirecTV get back Nexstar Channels? I had to buy a antenna but it's not dvr capable.

Nexstar isn’t powerful, they’re just harsh. I have no respect for them and they treat The CW like it’s a red headed step child. I hope they fly themselves apart.

Any tv service above $25 I’m not subscribing. No more 200 dollars a month. No YouTube TV or anything else.

I think the next phase of cord cutting 3.0 will be people migrating over two NexGen TV because services like YouTube TV are becoming more pricier. I could see where it will become common for people to be using nextgen along with free streaming content and one or two paid services like Netflix. If Roku comes out with a NextGen tuner, that also integrates with streaming apps that will be a game changer

Lots of good stuff in your video today. I wonder if part of the reason some of the services are dropping Tidal music is their announced price increase. I have a stand-alone Tidal music streaming and received an email that there is a price increase starting this month.

Trying to see who watches what is getting more difficult. VPN s hide what you are doing and the use of VPN s is getting bigger

If cable did not offer local news, half of their subscribers would probably be gone but in places like were I live cable subscribers are very small because we do not have local stations and news. My mom and my father live in different states and they kept cable mainly for that reason but I have convinced my mother to try things my way for a few months. I am happy to report that she says, it s not the same but she does not miss the high cable payments of 175/month with spectrum. She will be staying with streaming and saving 75.00/month. If you have internet with the local cable company, I can see them to try to go up on internet prices because so many people are streaming. Spectrum has gone up from around 70.00 to 98.00 for same package.

A war that will be never won

It's never going to end simple as that

If only they would spend this much time and money to shut down ROBO callers. Nope, they have to many lobbyist.

Clown

Only criminals are cable companies that charge minimum $70 for same shows that repeat over and over on few channels. You can’t watch any game live and if you want to have that it’s minimum $300 month. That’s a fucking car rent

We left DirecTV for Spectrum 2-3 weeks ago. We were happy to be away from the Nexstar BS to suddenly find ourselves in the ESPN mess.. I know all TV providers have disputes but I wasn't expecting one so soon..

Tv industry have great self pirate tv four two high prices

I didn't get any interruptions:) I guess the old saying is true. It's not what you know it's who you know.

Is Apollo group TV shut down?

How does the government hunt the users? Consider that average user uses an VPN

They have no rights. To be taken that down because I am paying fifteen dollars a month

Cable should just cap their service to 50 bucks, and extra for internet. That would solve the hemorrhaging. They will be out in five.

Tracking cable boxes should be easy. Old fashion antennas are almost gone.

Paramount Plus is an excellent deal.
