I am wondering what the future will be for Dish, Direct, cable. As there are so many disputes. I remember back 10 years ago, there were disputes but not as many. It looks like as a viewer, we may be on our own as far a programming goes in the distant future, or do without a lot of channels. With locals at $12 a month, how long will it be that Dish, Direct, cable will no longer carry locals? What is the limit? Will the viewer pay $15, $20, or even $25 a month to get their Networks? As long as there is OTA it is not an issue. But even then there was some talk 40 years ago. that even the OTA networks would start charging for their news, net shows, etc. CBS is already starting that with their streaming service. $5.95 a month to get the network shows and past episodes. So far their news channel is free. But with so many good streaming services like Prime, Hulu, etc, the competition will be fierce. Disney is starting their streaming service in late 2019. Because of that, most Disney movies will no longer be available on other channels. If you want Disney, you have to get it from Disney. Is this the future for everything? Time will tell.
