I looked at reselling the different options that were available at
WISPAPALOOZA. I don't understand how I am supposed to sell a service for $55 a
month (that DOESN'T include ESPN3), when people can just use Sling for $20, and
they get all the same channels but they DO get ESPN1,2, & 3. Also, the profit
was like $10. Seemed overpriced to me. I just can't see anybody paying double
to buy the same product from me that they can get for $20 through Sling.

I am pretty sure in our market - we will not fly without some kind of tv
package.

The service we rolled out was identical to any cable system - but
better. We of course could overlay outages messages, etc. You could
also view your content from anywhere with a mobile device and a login,
including your DVR'd recordings.
I fully believe that most content will become their own services /
apps in the future, but for the *majority* of current cable
subscribers, the transition will take a long time.
