So, my understanding is that approximately 60% of our monthly cable/streaming service bills for channels programming is ESPN. They pay conferences, etc for broadcast rights and charge subscribers accordingly. Since March we’ve been getting a bunch of reruns and other nonsense. May not get much better until 2021. Aren’t we due for some reflection of this in what we pay? I got refunds and premium reductions from State Farm. What can we do to press Disney’s button?

Cancel your cable?

I always cancel when no sports are available and turn it back on when the season begins. Not much else other than sports I want to watch.

Good luck with that. Been waiting for disney to refund me some annual pass money for about 2 months now.

It's nowhere near 60% but ESPN has long been the biggest taker of a cable/satellite/ streaming bill.

Find another cable company that will work out a plan when ESPN is not worth it right now.

Pretty sure you’re best bet is to cancel you’re not getting a refund

I dropped YouTube TV the day March Madness was canceled. Will not turn it on until college sports come back.

I dropped mine when sports stopped. Put it back on last week for baseball and hockey. Only watch sports or impractical jokers this point on cable. I have Hulu and Netflix for tv shows.
