CFB ticket prices are already encouraging people to stay home rather than physically attend games at stadiums. The enticement of ever larger 4K & 8K TVs is adding to that encouragement. Eventually, they will price themselves out of the market. Tickets, travel costs, and whatever else fringe services get tacked on. All will force people to reconsider stadium attendance.
Another factor is the rise of streaming, undercutting satellite and cable service. Satellcables learning nothing from how their greed pushes people away, now seek a
monopoly. Basically, limited customer choices and making it easier to bully customers with ever increasing fees. All with no avenue to do anything about it. But they are wrong, it will ignite defiance, and increase the birthrate of
alternative access. Likely even outlaw underground, offshore, or perhaps balloon based streamers who resent the incessant greedy milking of customers. I even foresee creative hackers coming up with computerized capture and decrypting devices that hijack broadcast signals. People can be very imaginative when pushed into a corner and bullied long enough. Streamers had best be careful to not repeat the bullying of customers. Otherwise, face a similar fate.
The idea of gaining and keeping customer loyalty via fair play, pricing, superior service etc. doesn't factor in the minds of these tick-leeches. It's going to cost them long term. Just as people opt to stay home with their giant TVs, and streaming services, they will double down by cutting their Satellcable cables for
alternative assess to watching CFB games.
