Not necessarily. What a lot of you forget is that even if this drives people to illegal streams, those streams have the same ads. So the sponsors don't care. They get the extra eyes anyway. YouTube is simply testing the addiction to football and if they don't get the orders they expect, they'll adjust. But they know that entertainment consumers want what they want and besides the ceremonial foot stamping they'll usually play ball for fear of being left out. Jerry knows this better than anyone.
That wasn’t the question or the point. And whether the sponsors care or not how their ads are seen is irrelevant because i’m order to be seen they have to purchase the spots, and subscription numbers are the driving cost factor. I was only pointing out that they *could* make profits on their investment w/ a lower price point, not that they will

Apparently the billion dollar company disagrees with internet user proof…have you applied for a job to explain this game changing concept ?
You seem easily confused. There’s nothing for them to disagree with because it’s not an advisement or an opinion. They are maximizing their profits as they should, but you asked how they could recoup their investment if not for high prices and I answered.

Also aren’t you on a message board offering your insight vs the wealth of knowledge snd experience in the NFL? Has anyone asked you to join a coaching staff?

Red Zone doesn't have ads, which is the only channel that interests me. No red zone only, no sale for me.

My insight ? No. I wouldn’t say that but I appreciate you calling what I offer insight. I am however offering my opinion and wouldBe the first to say the coaches know way more than me - as does you tube tv, the nfl and it’s partners on price points for its products.

Cheers

So how do you...as a cable subscriber...get games not presented in your market?
What I used to do is switch my location on my phone, then flip to whatever game I want. Then they plugged that work around. You might still be able to do it on a computer.

again I never said I knew better, I don’t. I answered a question you asked about how they could, not how or why they should. Hope that clears it up for you.

In the meantime i’ll be waiting for you to say Mike Martz knows more than you

This is how I look at it now. I get all but 2-3 Cowboys games. Besides Cowboys games, most of the good games get televised. For now it's still free to watch the playoffs. So what am I paying 349 dollars for? Houston at Tennessee? And that's if I purchase early.

Except you didn’t….the way YTV recoups it’s money the quickest and efficient way is by charging the absolute max that their analytics dept determines is feasible while still maximizing exposure. You offered an alternative on how they could recoup money but not how they could do it as quickly and efficiently as possible which in turn leads them to turnover over a profit.

Hence the price point they established- which I believe the nfl had a heavy hand in determining

I can't enjoy games as much at restaurants/bars.

Don't feel comfortable enough to show my true emotion and usually can't hear the gameplay or announcers.
I'm the same way. It's a fight waiting to happen for me, so I don't do it anymore. As Cowboys fans, we are targeted in those environments, at least outside of Texas.

Even though that price point sounds ridiculous, I believe that is exactly what they are doing.

I agree 100%. It's a complete madhouse at most of these places. It's hard to find one that's just slightly toned down.

none of that was criteria lol. that’s why it wasn’t advice or an opinion. companies make concessions for consumers all the time while still turning a profit. they could have as well as they did when they offered 30 dollar lifetime subscriptions to youtubetv early on. I know why they are going this direction, they just didn’t have to. Adding qualifiers after the fact changes the discussion

Its a weird dyamic ... .because the more profit they make....the more content they can offer. And the more they charge....for more profit....to offer more content...to....

Well never mind.

Streaming is cheaper than cable however, they’re in it to make money too, so the more people that subscribe to them their price will eventually go up as well. All these companies get you one way or the other
