FAYETTEVILLE — If you’re like me, the only reason you keep cable is for live sporting events.
Sports are the lifeblood of cable and satellite TV. It’s a mutually beneficial relationship as TV has funded the economic boom in sports over the past quarter-century.
I can watch Seinfeld reruns on Hulu and binge Longmire on Netflix, but for years, the only way to ensure I could see every game of the week is to keep paying a subscription to a cable provider.
Because of bundling, that cost has kept increasing. We pay in excess of $160 per month for cable, Internet and DVR through our provider.
