Cable/Satellite can't keep up with premium channels any longer The local channels are extremely overpriced and it has already killed a ton of businesses with many more over the horizon. Bally had Amazon bail them out this spring or they may have already gone belly up.

What does it all mean? GREED is going to continue to destroy sports TV packages and limit viewers' options. Cable companies are dying faster than they can bury them. Streaming is now the most productive option left for the purest.

I'm not sure what "productive" means in reference to streaming options, but decent streaming options are now increasingly expensive and the channel options are becoming more broken up (need multiple streaming options to get what you want). The overall streaming experience through a YouTubeTV or Fubo has gotten worse the last couple years, not better, in my opinion.

Streaming is ripe for consolidation, which will ironically leave us with an experience pretty similar to what cable was 6-7 years ago most likely
