It sounds like none of the three new options would require Sunday Ticket subscribers to pay to become a regular streamer, which I guess means they learned from DirectTV there is more money to be made selling the $300/year football deal than in using it to attract more regular customers. But how many Ticket subscriptions do they have to sell to make the $2 Billion profitable?
Also, looks like the NFL wants the rights owner for Sunday Ticket to also be a part owner of NFL Media, which runs NFL RedZone, which I always thought was basically an alternative and competitor to Sunday Ticket.
