THR: Survey says, $21 is what Americans would like to pay for a combined package of all streaming services. Range is $17-27 notfabio Jul 24, 08:07

90% of those same respondents say they currently pay an average of over $50.00 a month for cable. {nm} notfabio Jul 24, 08:08

Very little awareness of Apple TV and HBO Max, decent for Disney+ notfabio Jul 24, 08:10

currently i do $39/mo for HBO, Netflix, and Criterion. I'll bump it up for HBOMax+ but doubt I'll add Disney {nm} professor zovek Jul 24, 08:54

Disney+ is so low (for the moment) I could see plenty add for their hot shows and just leave it vs the folks who sign up/cancel for HBO GOT notfabio Jul 24, 09:07

There are some classic Disney cartoons I would pay $15 a month to watch. {nm} CSStrowbridge Jul 25, 03:00

What is going to happen is people are going to start jumping from streaming service to streaming service instead of staying. {nm} fourstars Jul 24, 09:41

nah, people are lazy. They havent canceled HBO after GOT ended. They'll just stop at the first 5 or 6 Moviesnob Jul 24, 09:47

the better way to approach this is to ask what streaming content they would pay to support. Its unlikely people have a budget for that Moviesnob Jul 24, 09:45

the only one I feel like I’m really missing out on some shows is Hulu. but not enough yet to add it on {nm} professor zovek Jul 24, 10:10

How do news, sports, and the like fit into this issue? My cable offers much more than sitcoms and movies {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Jul 24, 09:47

regional sports and news are still your local broadcasts. out of markets sports/news will have their own app. most already do {nm} Moviesnob Jul 24, 09:52

sports will also license their content like NFL and Amazon and Hulu and Women's World Cup {nm} Moviesnob Jul 24, 09:53

I continue to be baffled that Apple didn’t just bid all the networks out of the room for exclusive NFL rights. it’s how Murdoch did it with professor zovek Jul 24, 10:12

I cant disagree, but part of it is the Direct TV deal is very lucrative and capures all the out of market and most importantly Moviesnob Jul 24, 10:30

i can see AT&T going after all NFL rights and giving the NFL a blank check {nm} Moviesnob Jul 24, 10:36

Currently they see adding NBA, MLB, possibly soccer as live TV offerings via HBO Max. notfabio Jul 24, 10:45

agreed but if anyone has the cash to overpay (and the need to drive subscriptions at launch) it's Apple {nm} professor zovek Jul 24, 10:40

I do not have a handle on what Apple's content strategy is beyond "talent". I know you were a fan, but LATE NIGHT should have Moviesnob Jul 24, 11:08

YouTube TV gives you local stations, several ESPNs, Fox Sports, FS1, FS2, TNT, HGTV, CNN, FOX, MSNBC, 70 stations PhoneHome Jul 24, 11:12
