Message: [QUOTE="McLovin, post: 3102265, member: 9450"] Yeah ECU vs Tulane is now behind a paywall. But guess what, when it was on ESPN NEWS no one was tuning in to watch either way. UConn vs Memphis will not be behind the paywall. All of the sports networks that air most college sports (beyond ESPN / 2) require some additional level of sports package beyond basic cable. So technically there is a "paywall" for most college sports. It wouldn't surprise me if in a few years ESPN+ is just bundled in with existing cable packages, much like Comcast gives you the option of doing that with Neflix. You still pay additional for the content, but it integrate seamlessly into your TV. ESPN will figure out a way to make everyone pay for their flagship / traditional cable packages and ESPN+ on top of it. You can take it to the bank that is their goal. [/QUOTE]
