Ugh. Apple is as good as company there is to be involved with. But still...I'm skeptical at our subscriber draw with the LA schools gone. I'll speculate that the $20M figure that's being thrown about is the base, which would suggest that Apple would either charge a fortune for the package or we'd need a huge subscriber base to generate elevators to match the $32M Big 12 number.
Could have been a good deal a decade ago when Pac-12 Network was launched. But we're likely short on market share, money, leverage, and time now.
I don't know how Apple tv deal works, but I don't have Apple tv and I would be mad if I am forced to pay extra money to watch games. I pay for sports bundle on Cox to include the Pac12 network.
No one knows the details yet but I'd guess it's like their MLS package. People can order that a la carte without subscribing to Apple TV. I got MLS pass free through TMobile and don't subscribe to Apple TV's core lineup nor do I own any Apple TV equipment.
You would presumably be able to cancel the cable sports package unless you subscribe to watch another team.

So then Apple TV is not necessarily a show stopper. But a bit of a pain for folks who only know linear channel changing.
