    Real vMVPD US subscribers totals

    I do not know where they received the numbers, but the numbers for each DirecTV service are out there now, since AT&T is putting up their 70% of the company for sale this August, any Financial Group or Journalists has access. I do have this, Fitch Ratings last reported the numbers a few months...

    How things have changed

    I wrote about this before , while about 22% of households (131 Million total in the United States) use antennas with streaming, only 4% use OTA only, no streaming or anything else.

    Real vMVPD US subscribers totals

    Again, I left YTTV back in January, broadcast/cable channels are no longer producing enough new content to make it worth it. Specially since I get that same content on the streaming services, in much better quality plus all the extras, at a much less expensive price. Alphabet is a great...

    You brought up myself possibly having stock in a company as a negative, specially since it would have obsoletely have nothing to do with the subscriber numbers. I have a biased against all Paid Live TV Providers, where else can you get less and less new content, yet the price keeps going up and...

    This is the forum where that information should be, is it not? Should I have posted those awful subscriber numbers on Stream in the DirecTV Forum? Or should I pop in over there and remind everyone that DirecTV has lost about 15 Million subscribers in 7 years, about 2-3 years from being...

    Real vMVPD US subscribers totals

    New content on Paid Live TV ( what little there is) is on a few different channels, not one. Streaming Services just has those channels via apps. For example, if I want to watch content from CBS, either turn the channel to CBS or go to Paramount+, where I can get. the same CBS content, plus...

    Apple TV+ Is the New HBO

    While I prefer the shorter season, the long wait till the next season drives me crazy, some shows, even before the strike, was a two year wait. As far as Network shows, this upcoming season, new shows only get a order for 10 episodes, returning shows, 13-20 episodes. They can no longer produce...

    Dude, the RSNs get very low ratings, 1-3 percent of the total audience. Unless it is Football, not enough is watching, last year’s World Series only had a average of 4 Million Households watching, out of 131 Million. As far as YTTV goes, just reported another 500,000 new subscribers in the 1st...

    It was basically another version of a personal attack, which is happening more often again. Another person here did the same when I post positive news about Netflix. By the way, I have owned Alphabet/Google stock since before YTTV was a thing, have not bought any new shares for years.

    Godzilla Minus One

    There were some shots of Godzilla that looked more like a character rendered for a video game. But again, based on the budget, that was to be expected, overall a great movie. I was impressed more by the special effects showing so much destruction then Godzilla himself.

    I do in Alphabet, but why does that matter? I do not subscribe to the service, I did, but paid Live TV is only worth it to me in September til January for ESPN ( College Football Playoffs) and for Fox Sports/Big Ten (when Michigan Football is on).

    Finally, some correct numbers, the biggest surprise was DirecTV Stream with only 600,000. This is a service that started a year before YTTV, as DirecTV Now, but yet, YTTV has 8.5 Million. Other points- Based on the 500,000 gain YTTV had in the 1st quarter, if that is the average gain for the...

    Did not say it was, but it was unfair to only bring up streaming prices going up in the article and not mentioning Paid Live TV, which has even more extreme increases while losing content.

    Article.Thoughts about streaming prices

    OTA ( Broadcast Channels) relies on advertising and per sub fees from Paid Live TV. Advertising Revenues for Broadcast ( and Cable Channels) are half what it was in 2019 ( then $60 Billion, now $30 Billion). Per Sub fees are 30 Million households less then 2017 ( then 100 Million, now 70 Million).

    Every year, streaming prices go up. The one thing not mentioned, so does paid Live TV Services, so the difference in price between them remains the same.

    For some services, not all. My prices above include the upgrade to 4K.

    Apple TV+ Is the New HBO

    nope, not even close Except for Peacock and ESPN+, which I only use during Football Season, all of the other services I have are commercial free. No it is not, maybe that is your opinion, but I find streaming content to be a much higher quality then Cable Channels/Satellite shows, if you pay...

    Amazon Prime Day

    I am always amazed that people get upset about this. Streaming seems to get the majority of blame when support stops due to the hardware getting old. But there are issues with Traditional Pay TV equipment also, for example, DirecTV Receivers, which are definitely getting up there in years, I...

    I am also, but I believe you mean Star Wars on D+. Just watched the first two episodes of Star Wars: The Acolyte, really good, mad at myself for not waiting till the series was done so I could binge it, now I want more of it.
