Getting boomers to swear off football and basketball would be a net positive for this country. The amount of money the give to the ~~*owners*~~ of sports teams and sports media is ludicrous and you damn well know a good chunk of it is funneled back into blm and the like.
Your god objectively and factually does not exist beyond a shadow of a doubt. You believe in things that literally cannot happen like people coming back from the dead. Your beliefs are not worthy of respect nor are you. You are a fricking moron and a clown.
Like you are actually really really really fricking stupid if you believe in god. This is not an opinion, it is a fact. You are stupid and your god is fake.
They will bail on Spectrum if this doesn't get resolved. If anything this will push people towards ESPN+ (which is part of the Disney+ bundle)
>Disney gets boycotted by bible belt morons >Disney responds by holding college football hostage
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
has nothing to do with that and everything to do with money
Not a burger here. Is there a context?
Disney wants more $ from Spectrum for offering their programming as part of the Spectrum cable subscription. Spectrum doesn't want to pony up. So both parties will blame the other and tell the pissed off consumers to b***h at the other company. The idea is that eventually one party will give in to the demands of the other.
Why in the FRICK hasn’t all this inane monopolistic bullshit been broken up yet?
idk it's awful
Spectrum is dogshit and needs to be burned to the ground.
you can't watch regular espn content on espn+, you have to go through a provider. disney has pulled their channels from almost every provider at one point or another over the last few years. at some point espn will most likely just sell directly to the consumer, but the cable/satellite bundle has been so profitable they can't let it go.
They own the rights to ACC and SEC and partial rights on Big 12.
They also have Pac 12 rights for this season, which will be the last season of the Pac 12 ever

homie if you don't know how to pirate shit now is the time to learn
hey bro just be careful you don't get a virus while downloading your shows, I keep getting ads for discount mattresses ever since I downloaded Mall Cop 2 and the pirates of the caribbean theme plays whenever I open the calculator program
Disney realizes that people will literally just cancel their cable if it doesn't include ESPN, especially now that college football is starting. So they have leverage to demand more money.
Spectrum didn't pay, so they literally cut off the broadcast for spectrum right before the Florida-Utah game started.
Spectrum is a telecommunications provider (TV, internet, phone, etc.). To carry any channel, the cable companies pay the channel operators a chunk of each subscription. That rate is negotiated every couple of years. Spectrum's current contract to distribute Disney's sports channels has expired and they have not come to an agreement for a new one. Odds are Disney is asking for more than Spectrum thinks their channels are worth.
Thank you both.
>bible belters don't watch Disney
Then who is complaining about Mud Brown and the 7 Diversity Hires?

disney pulled ALL their channels from spectrum not just the sports shit. its about the overall contract not just sports. all cable companies have to negotiate contracts with content owners to use their programming its not JUST disney... seen this happen before with other networks wanting spectrum to pay more....
Yes, the other channel operators occasionally have disputes like this, too. Disney is the worst, though. It's well known that ESPN commands far higher rates than any other non-premium cable channel. Disney Channel used to be up there, too (since it was ad-free), but the kids channels have very low viewership now and Disney+ has definitely devalued them substantially.
>Odds are Disney is asking for more than Spectrum thinks their channels are worth.
Sounds like Disney wants Spectrum to die so that more people will be eligible to sign up for Disney+
But that’s something of a self own because people would still need internet to stream their channels and spectrum is the only game in town for a large portion of the rural southeast where much of the ESPN content is watched.
there is simply no political will to do so among the populace or reps. America as a country is premised on letting capital and industry do whatever it wants, that's freedom baby, don't like it? sue me!
Every president since Clinton has been about deregulation and doesn't care and as the Microsoft/Sony case showed, antitrust regulation is now toothless.
That's barbaric. I know the United States is a large country, but every time I hear people complaining about their ISPs or cable providers I really think you guys are living in the third world.
If you think we’re bad, ask an Australian about their internet service and how much it costs. Shits wild. Rural Canada apparently has it pretty bad too. Basically any country where there are large swaths of low density rural areas is getting fricked by ISPs. Two years ago, I talked to a woman from New Mexico that was trying to run a home e-business on 56k dial up.
By the sound of it this kind of thing happens often then? What are the odds this wraps up soon and things get back on air again? I doubt Spectrum is really going to let all those channels go.
wtf is spectrum? is it some west coast poverty ISP?
it was a regional budget ISP that has rapidly expanded over the last 8 (maybe 10+?) years and is now one of the biggest in the country. It also offers tv/phone like the others.
It used to be Time Warner/Road Runner before it got bought up and then rebranded. Idiots fell for it and resubscribed the same old shit that had been fricking them in the ass for years, under a new name. The only commercials I ever see for it constantly aim at dumb blacks
Anyway, I'm gonna keep watching youtube and plex on my firestick while I play through something on steam or one of my consoles. It's been years since Disney put out anything I could watch without it negatively affecting my health, let alone actually want to see.
>hurrrrr believing in sky-santa is le good because it makes me not feel like a small little baby boy. If you tell me there’s not a big sky goddy who loves me and thinks im special i might just cry
Christians are literally the stupidest fricking people alive
A chrsitian who just admitted he feels believing in his made up god is good because it makes him feel like he’s not the pathetic waste of flesh he is cringing is worth about as much as a teenage girl who loves bts cringing.

Truth
You'll have a nice day first, troon
Your "god" ACKed himself before any of us 😉
a modern classic
Christcucks are the only group that unanimously love you troon freaks, don't bite the hand that feeds you.
Wrong, moron.
I’m literally Muslim.
Muhammad was not a prophet, there is no god, and the koran was not written by your nonexistent god.
Really, really funny that you think Bible thumpers are the people who don't like you.
No one likes you.
Jesus Christ was not a god and did not rise from the dead.
You dropped this

who the hell cares? If i wanted to see mormons get BTFO argue with them about freemasonry
i will now purchase your internet services
OH NOES NOT MY SPORTSBALL
Disney owns the NCAA?
They own the rights to ACC and SEC and partial rights on Big 12.
They also have Pac 12 rights for this season, which will be the last season of the Pac 12 ever
>They own the rights to ACC and SEC and partial rights on Big 12.
WTF. Guess it's not amateur sports anymore
Is this because Spectrum
Is in Florida?
It's all over it looks like. By the sounds of it Disney is asking for more money for Spectrum to keep airing the programs they have.
im fricking angry. the only reason i have cable is for live sports FRICK THIS STUPID SHIT
Didn't they just send a letter begging the FCC to crack down on illegal streaming claiming it makes them lose billions in ad revenue?
Thank god this doesn't effect hockey
Nobody cares about hockey, boomer.
FRICK SPECTRUM, I CANT WATCH CARTOONS NOW CAUSE THEY PULLED ALL THEIR CHANNELS! NO DISNEY XD NO DISNEY JUNIOR FRICK YOU DISNEY YOU STUPID c**tS

How old are you?
Spectrum internet is so fricking choppy too. Cuts out for like 5 minutes every 3 hours for me.
Not a burger here. Is there a context?
capitalism
Disney in death throws. America is healing
Yeah, but what's Spectrum and why did they remove their programming from it? That's the sort of context we non-burgers are looking for,.
Spectrum is a cable company. A pretty big one. Disney is asking for more money to air their programs.
Disney realizes that people will literally just cancel their cable if it doesn't include ESPN, especially now that college football is starting. So they have leverage to demand more money.
Spectrum didn't pay, so they literally cut off the broadcast for spectrum right before the Florida-Utah game started.

yeah, this is likely leading to people signing up for the Hulu live/ESPN+/Disney+ bundle
That's business, b***h.
But that’s something of a self own because people would still need internet to stream their channels and spectrum is the only game in town for a large portion of the rural southeast where much of the ESPN content is watched.
>throws
Throes, dumbass.

No, there are restrictions intended to keep a level playing field.
But do tell us about your preferred replacement.
>NOOOO GOVERN ME HARDER, DADDY

more like On the Spectrum
QRD on Disney? Shows have been pulled, employees have been fired, Florida is taking shots at them, movies have bombed supposedly.
Is it true that it's over?
this is fricked up because i know if i call spectrum to cancel now, i'm not gonna get through to anyone
>hardships for our customers
Dont they mean for their company? Their customers can just go elsewhere.
In a lot of areas, there is nowhere else to go. Spectrum is pretty much the only option.
That's barbaric. I know the United States is a large country, but every time I hear people complaining about their ISPs or cable providers I really think you guys are living in the third world.
If you think we’re bad, ask an Australian about their internet service and how much it costs. Shits wild. Rural Canada apparently has it pretty bad too.

Are they too dumb to use an IPTV?
Disney will have the same dispute with every other provider once their contract is up.
By the sound of it this kind of thing happens often then? What are the odds this wraps up soon and things get back on air again? I doubt Spectrum is really going to let all those channels go.
I wonder how many people are actively signing up for streaming (including Hulu, owned by Disney) as a result of this
Disney wins
I fricking hate Charter so much bros. Constant outages, internet ten times as slow as what you pay for, and their channel packages are shit
wtf is spectrum? is it some west coast poverty ISP?
get a load of this underage homosexual living in moms basement...
nice projection but I've never heard of fricking spectrum, Is it like the obamaphone but for cable/internet?
google and stop being a moron.
In the time that you took to make 2 worthless posts you could have just told me all about the poor people service you use.
do your own research stupid
nah I'm good I've already lost interest
go frick yourself homosexual
yet you keep responding and asking the same shit
Lol that homosexual is going to be seething for the rest of the night.
This. I get the ick if he don't have xfinity sorry not sorry

You have a childs intellect if you believe in God and should be put on medication for it.

What kind of hardship does this cause for their viewers?

That's it, I will be switching to Corncob TV.
How do I into IPTV?
