Abstract

Disney, Fox, and Warner Brothers Discovery are teaming up to offer a cable bundle that includes various channels, including ESPN, local affiliates, TBS, and TNT. However, this bundle is seen as a gimmicky cable replacement app that won't solve the real problems faced by sports fans and sports leagues. The app may have a short lifespan due to its inability to support sports betting and the expiration of its sports rights. It is speculated that the app may be bundled with Disney's streaming service, Disney+, and Warner's Max to reduce customer churn and compete with Netflix. [Extracted from the article]
