Verizon or Spectrum passed it along and you never knew; it was part of the basic package. Or was until just now. And as cable providers make it more pick&choose, they're losing subscriptions. And why the streaming thing might not be so great. Finding out a lot of people either don't care about sports or aren't keen on paying for it directly. ESPN wants to go to some kind of direct subscription/streaming service. They have a lot of expensive overhead ; expensive talent nobody really cares about, studios in NY, LA, CT and huge rights fees. They're paying Aikman, Buck, Mike Greenberg and Screaming A. and many other nonhackers ridiculous $. People are tuning in to the NFL even if you put a senile grandma and Carrot Top on as the announcers. Do Aikman or Buck cause 1 more person to watch? And the rest of their programming is morons screaming at each other. Well-paid morons in high end studios; the NYC Seaport set overlooking the Brooklyn Bridge alone has to cost an insane amount of cash; there's no value added for that other than it looks cool. This isn't a well run company. Claiming they had 23 million people watch. At a loss how they calculate that. If someone had The 'Cock and they put it one for a minute, does that count? How many people viewed it? Do they believe say, 4 people viewed every subscription? No doubt they did business, but it's still disgusting greed. Streaming is expensive for consumers, the tech sucks and not really all that clear it makes any more sense for content providers either. Netflix got in early and even they're having issues. Amazon is huge. Everybody else; big question marks. Cable TV is not? My wife and I 'cut the cord' last year. We maintain our internet package and have signed up for several steaming services. We are easily saving $50-$75. The Chiefs game was fine. Paramount+ games are good as well. Amazon needs to work on their production. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GKnight83 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Anyone find it unusual that the KC/MIA game is being touted as one of the coldest in NFL history. But in Buffalo, where the temps won't get as dangerously cold as KC, they're moving the game to Monday. I guess if Peacock is paying the big bucks, they want it in the timeslot they pushed for - damn the fans.You do realize it was the snow and not the temperature, right?Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have the data and people whose job it is to forecast the business value of a venture like this. It wasn’t a gamble. It was good business. Hence, they broke records. Your take couldn’t have been more wrong. They got a lot more than I expected. I still expect it to be a money loser. peacock is expected to lose 2.8 billion dollars this year. They don’t appear to have good forecasters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon needs to work on their production. Have Amazon, because everybody has an Amazon account. Takes I don't know how many clicks on the remote to load. And then the video or audio drop in and out. Had this experience in both houses. Often you get an error message and have to start all over again. When it does load, you're locked in No changing the station. Or you have to climb the mountain all over again. Amazon does have Al Michaels, who may be the best ever at calling games. Herbstreit is fine. Shame the audio drops so much. But they also have a very weird collection of pre/post/half personnel, which you're stuck watching because you can't toggle out to another channel. Fitzmagic!; yeah, no. Screaming, Richard Sherman, Andrew Wentworth modeling hoodies. And then the very weird case of Tony Gonzalez. He has nothing to say. And really the only thing remotely interesting about him is his ex-wife's new husband owns Amazon. Is he there as part of the divorce settlement? The halftime show would only be interesting if they asked Tony about this cuck arrangement for 15 minutes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Amazon because my wife buys a crap ton of stuff from it. 😂 Their production is the worst. Most of the play by play is white noise. Amazon's picture quality sucks.

Streaming broke up the cable monopoly, we’re currently in a Wild West of market establishment, and what’ll happen is that too many options and u realistic pricing or bundling options will create demand for a “one-stop-shop” option… then we’ll have a few steaming giants gobble it all up and establish a monopoly on it.

The firesticks are trash, their smart tv based version of their app is trash, and all the echoes are junk. Constant buffering, etc. I do like some of their original content though. Only good product is the paper white tablet. Narrowed focus on what it does = does it great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 So Peacock had an introductory one year fee of $30 that sounds like a good deal. Not sure what it included they usually get you for different tiers with the really good premium stuff like Oppenheimer on the most expensive tier. If they took any initial losses the idea is to get you in as a customer and plan long term. They assume a percentage of customers aren't good consumers and will just keep paying. Pay TV has been around for a long time and this is just a version of it. To me even more annoying are the constant promos for online gambling and shows built to encourage you to gamble. Of course with phony disclaimers on not betting above your limit. A minute later they're tossing out incentives to get you to gamble more.

Yup, sounds like a winner to me. No wonder they lost so much money! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
