Good luck to those of you using this service. Are there other options in the Cableverse that viewers could switch to (if they don't intend to "cut the cord")?

It's just going to mean prioritizing which services I want and missing out on some good programs because I don't want to subscribe to a service for only 1 series. Sports might be an exception or at least high priority.
4XPIPS wrote:Wow! That is a massive blow to users, but it was only time before where cable networks fold to the "app" based streaming world. The timing of this is suspicious. You do this at time when ratings are about to go through the roof as we all know College Football and NFL draw the most ratings in any sports.
I moved to New Zealand earlier this year, and I signed up for NFL+ premium, and signed up for Fubo TV for college football. I never had Fubo Tv before, honestly thought it was a scam at first when I was referred to it from Reddit users, now I am able to catch all my college football from that and cant wait! I will have to watch the hawks on replay, on Monday local time, because I am about 18 hours ahead. But I really love how NFL + lets your toggle off the scores.

4XPIPS wrote:I could imagine the customer phone lines blowing up if ESPN was just instantly erased. Never heard of Charter Spectrum, wonder what region they cover. My parents live in El Paso TX they use Spectrum. I moved from Arizona earlier this year and we had Cox Communications, but I think that is owned by Comcast as well? I could be wrong though. I would presume the Spectrum my parents have is affiliated with Charter Spectrum?

At this point, nothing. I thought that my ESPN+ subscription included all ESPN content, but apparently not. Not all NFL MNF games are in their package.
So, if Spectrum and ESPN don't come to an agreement within the next week, I'll be ditching Spectrum for FuboTV, which has everything I want for less than I'm paying for Spectrum's service. The only reason why I haven't changed is because my daughter is sharing my account.

Fubo shares went up 13% , and it's a cheap stock at this time trading at $2.65 per share.

PLUS: you can get in and out of your FUBO subscription really easy online. Not Spectrum, you have to call them to cancel - took me 1 hour and 39 minutes before anyone answered (you have to call a special # to cancel. Funny, they answer right away if your buying).

FUBO is a cheap stock. That's why I wonder how they pay for the sports licensing. Immense revenues are needed to run the NFL or other sports leagues. I wonder how they spend enough on the licensing to make this an attractive option that can help the leagues sustain their revenues.
