So I never watched ESPN or NFL football or NBA basketball. Too busy and just not interested.
But I recently closed my DirectTV account and bought a Roku stick to stream TV shows off the internet. Netflix, Hulu. Dropped my monthly TV bill by about $175 month.
Cable and satellite cutting by the public is going to change the industry.
When people have other options that are cheaper with more flexibility in what to watch and when, human nature will win out.
I suspect most of ESPN's subscriber losses have to do with their insistence on inserting liberal political positions into their programming than this bogus tax-season-just cutting-back-on-our-budget claim.

We cut our Comcast cable last June and avoided the 1 July price increase, 1 Jan 2018 and now the new upcoming price increase.
We are saving over $100/month on the old rate. You can probably add another $50/75 per month with the constant Comcast increases since we cut our cable.
