I wonder how much buy-in came from companies like ESPN who I feel are supporting existing cable providers who pay ~$5 per subscriber? If I can triple it to $60/mo and get many (all?) other sports channels, I will not hesitate to purchase. I also feel this will be a big boon for the satellite company whose products were not previously available to apartment dwellers without a southern-sky view.
