RE: "Sports networks squeezed by rising costs and fewer subscribers"
(05-12-2022 01:05 PM)Attackcoog Wrote: Thought the current cable sports network subscriber data reported in this tweet was pretty interesting. The most surprising stat is that CBS-Sports Network has substantially closed the subscriber gap between CBSSN and the top ESPN networks. While ESPN remains king, according to these numbers, the CBSSN subscriber count now compares favorably to ESPN-U.

Per Kagan estimates released last month, 2021 Year-end subscribers:
75.7 million — ESPN
75.6 — ESPN2
72.2 — FS1
62.6 — CBSSN
54.9 — ESPNU
51.2 — SECN
50.7 — FS2
48.1 — BTN

P12N is ~14 million
Its worth noting that ESPN+ has 22 million subscribers---meaning that at this point, ESPN+ has over 50% more reach than the Pac-12 Network.
I enjoy watching CFB on CBSN I can see why they are closing the GAP!
