The Rangers Streaming Deal: A Sign of Things to Come?
The Texas Rangers are going their own way with a new streaming deal on Victory+, a move that ditches the traditional RSN model. Is this a glimpse into the future of baseball broadcasting or a gamble that could backfire? With reports suggesting this is just the first step in a multi-pronged approach, what does this mean for fans? Will we see more teams cutting their own deals and fragmenting the viewing landscape even further? More importantly, will fans be willing to shell out for yet another subscription service? How much is too much before the average fan starts tuning out?
This situation also brings up broader questions about revenue sharing. The Rangers are hoping to build their own RSN through individual deals. Is this sustainable? Could this model actually lead to greater revenue disparity between large and small market teams? What impact will this have on the competitive balance of the league? If this works, could it pressure other teams to follow suit, leading to a complete overhaul of baseball broadcasting?
Finally, let’s talk about the fan experience. Is easy access and affordability more important than having everything in one place? Are fans ready for a future where watching their team requires juggling multiple streaming services? Weigh in with your thoughts and predictions for the future of baseball broadcasting.
