EXACTLY the same thing. When large media companies realize they can't have their cake and eat it too, I'll stop seeking out games any way that I can.

The fact of the matter is, they want a premium for their content and they want to deliver it in a way that is cheapest for them. They look at streaming as another revenue chain that they should be able to bilk and charge way too much for. So as soon as they stop stealing from me, their consumer, I'll stop stealing from them.

And by the way - I would GLADLY pay for that content through ESPN+, YTTV, or an RSN app (that they are developing and I will 100% purchase). But when my only option is to sign a three-year contract with a company that will charge me double for exactly what I get now EXCEPT for the one regional channel I can watch three SU games on a year, I'll gladly find another way to do it.

I'm not going to pay essentially an extra 2500 dollars over three years for what amounts to about a dozen SU basketball games. When that is the price of entry you better believe I'll sneak in the backdoor every single time and I won't feel guilty about it at all. If they can gouge me at every turn, I have no problem gouging them from time to time. I'm sure the billion-dollar company will miss my 2500 dollars and have to get a corporate bailout because of it. :rolleyes: Give me a break.
