ESPN is big enough to look after itself. They will either renegotiate their distribution rights or go elsewhere. Maybe they'll pay to distribute it themselves.

YouTube is big enough to look after itself. They have calculated the risk and are willing to lose some content (temporarily?) to launch YouTube Red.

People are (hopefully) smart enough to look after themselves. If they want to watch the videos they'll find a way.

Not that I would pay for YouTube or watch ESPN so what do I know.

Five comments and not one mentioning ESPN. Come on pipedot I thought better of you. I do agree it's a terrible name though, what's wrong with premium or something in that vein?

You say "Five comments and not one mentioning ESPN," right after pointing out that "ESPN is big enough to look after itself."

Pretty sure you've answered your own point.

So is YouTube, so we shouldn't discuss their involvement either? Might as well just post generic topics and talk about different.
