Not even close

The average DirecTV bill is $124/month

YoutubeTV - $65

HBO Max - $10

Netflix - $10

Disney+ Bundle (Hulu, Disney+, ESPN+) - $8

AppleTV+ - $5

That's a package that even has redundancies and youtubetv is a pricier option than something like sling. Plus you get access to way, way, WAY more entertainment.

I would rather pay the exact same amount as cable, but be getting exactly what I want.  That is more the point, not necessarily the money. 

 
I only need my football and my shows.

Huskers, Good Times, The A-Team, Fall Guy, Golden Girls and The Nanny.  Maybe some golf.   :)

The golden days of streaming were about 4 years ago. I think it started going downhill when Playstation TV was canned. That's when everyone start raising rates. Before COVID it seemed like everybody's price was going up every six months.

It was $35 when it first launched. Then it jumped to $40 when it added all the Turner Networks (TNT, TBS, CNN, CN, etc.), then to $50 when it added all the Discovery network channels.

Went up to $65 in 2020 after adding Viacom's lineup of BET, CMT, Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon, Paramount Network, TV Land, and VH1

So a good deal more expensive but with more content and lightyears better accessibility than any cable offering that's ever existed. Still, there are plenty of cheaper options.

 
The Big Ten’s new media rights agreements are backloaded in part because CBS is limited on how many Big Ten games it can show in 2023, the final year of its SEC contract.

In 2023-24, the league’s schools will receive the same conference distribution as they did in 2022-23 (nearly $60 million per school). The league’s payouts will increase slightly in Year 2 (2024-25) before drastically increasing the final five years of the deal from 2025-30, growing to about $100 million per school, including revenue from the College Football Playoff, bowl games and the NCAA Basketball Tournament.

The contract includes an escalator clause, meaning the deal could approach nearly $10 billion if the Big Ten’s membership increases, network sources said. Even after adding USC and UCLA, the Big Ten “is not done” expanding, sources told Action Network.

So...Notre Dame....you can be happy with your "hopeful" $75,000,000 and stay independent, or you can come over and get $100,000,000.

Interesting tidbits in bold.

NU/Iowa Black Friday in primetime?

Also, y'all are going to need to subscribe the The 'C0ck as I'm guessing they'll be putting the big draws on there to drive subs.

CBS, FOX and NBC will each televise designated Big Ten football championship games during the term of the agreements. Fox will broadcast the league’s title game in the odd years (2023, 2025, 2027 and 2029), while CBS will broadcast it in 2024 and 2028, and NBC will air it in 2026.

Fox/FS1 will carry up to 27 regular-season football games in 2023, then up to 32 games per year from 2024 onward. BTN will broadcast up to 41 games in 2023 and a maximum of 50 games per year afterward.

NBC will broadcast 16 regular-season Big Ten games in 2023 and then 15 games per year from 2024 onward. Games on NBC will simultaneously stream on Peacock. NBC will carry a primetime game on Black Friday as well.

Peacock will exclusively stream four conference football games per year in addition to four nonconference games involving Big Ten teams.

Because the SEC will remain on CBS through the end of the 2023 season, the Big Ten will have a partial schedule on the network its first year. CBS will carry seven Big Ten football games as well as regular season and postseason men’s basketball as well as, for the first time, the women’s basketball tournament final.

Starting in 2024, CBS will broadcast up to 15 Big Ten football games per season, including an afternoon game on Black Friday. All of those games will be broadcast on CBS, and every game CBS airs will also stream on Paramount+.
