They asked whether you would pay an extra $1.10/month to add BTN to your cable network? 9% said Yes; 91% said No. <BR/><BR/>Adding this to basic is akin to the tail wagging the dog. This is digital tier programming, and the sooner the Big Ten comes to grip with that concept, the better it will be for all Big Ten fans. The problem is that Fox owns 49% of BTN and desparately wants to cash in on their investment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-8604521912929993462007-07-20T14:02:00.000-07:002007-07-20T14:02:00.000-07:00Rick Klatt may look like an idiot but there is a l...Rick Klatt may look like an idiot but there is a larger point. If 82% don’t want the channel, it means 18% do. Why not just buy it as part of a separate package. It seems that would end this fight and we could concentrate on football.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06319233144514863064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-4474534404692748322007-07-20T09:28:00.000-07:002007-07-20T09:28:00.000-07:00Who wouldn't want to pay extra to watch college vo...Who wouldn't want to pay extra to watch college volleyball and tennis? <BR/><BR/>You can't put a price on watching Indiana play Indiana State in football, or Northwestern take on Northeastern.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-80127727454741637192007-07-20T09:11:00.000-07:002007-07-20T09:11:00.000-07:00Not Accurate cause As usual ISU fans have to F*&K ...Not Accurate cause As usual ISU fans have to F*&K up everything. ISU fans created a bot to vote NO over and over. Hence the wide discrepancy in votes.<BR/><BR/>While I'm sure there are a large number of people who don't feel the BTN should be on basic cable, we will never really know due to the usual low-brow and childish antics that are Iowa State!!Bradyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12207643195024828326noreply@blogger.com
