much like rural pennsylvanians remain completely ignorant about how their way of life is subsidized by philadelphia, I’m afraid that sports fans remain unaware exactly how much sports broadcasts are subsidized by non-sports viewers buying cable

$10/month per league would be a bargain compared to what it costs for any cable/cable equivalent (YouTubeTV, etc) plus all the other services you have to cobble together. Hell $20/month per league would be a bargain.

they’re not gonna do something like this unless each of the leagues can make at least $10/mo off of you

I say $10/mo because that’s basically what mlb.tv charges already if you account for the offseason

MLB.TV plans and prices Service Monthly price Yearly price MLB.TV All Teams $29.99/mo. $149.99/season MLB.TV Single Team ー $129.99/season Mar 3, 2025
