Home Forums Skybox Sports Bar First and Goal Sunday Ticket on You Tube

They have lost their damn minds. You tube is going to charge $449 for Sunday Ticket and for the first year if order before June 6th it's $349. This is their a la carte deal. If you pay you tube $72 and change a month you can add it for $349.

I've had Sunday ticket for years and I refuse to pay you tube that kind of money.

Thoughts?

Agree. I've had the Sunday Ticket thru Directv before and they always gave me a discount. No way in hell I pay full price that YouTube wants to charge.

And the past few years I've just used online sites that post links to the Red Zone channel. I'll most likely be doing that again this year.

Redzone Channel is the way to go on Sunday. No commercials for seven hrs except for the half hr breaks. I'd never pay the amount that YouTube charges. The problem is ppl will allow the NFL to screw them over and over and the NFL oligarchs will never have enough.

If you have Directv, the Red Zone channel will be there and it's free for those that subscribe to the sports package.

I'm going back to my old school days of long ago............... Sirius NFL broadcasts which you get your choice of team announcers and I'll have whatever bad local games are on. I'll have the lap top out looking for streams of the games I want to watch.

They are advertising heavily this horrific Sunday Ticket and they brag you can watch 4 games at once. Not only could you have done this with DTV, but they had the 8 box channel as well. It was great during commercials you just moved from that game to another.

I hope that YT loses a crap load of money. Trying to force people to streaming services is just a bad idea for a product that hundreds of millions love. They are banking on the younger folks to fork over this money. The younger folks aren't going to do it and the older people won't have any part of it.

It's a lose lose situation for YT and like I said, I hope they go deep in the red over it.

I think I read when the owners approved the deal with YouTube that a minimum price was set by the league and they can't go beyond that price unless the league allows them. I don't know how the package interferes with the network packages but they said it hurts them when it is to low as people don't watch them.
