Elastic Demand for Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League

 As a cord cutter, I've been watching coverage of upper-end soccer progressively degrade in quality while increasing in price. $11.99 for ESPN + is the breaking point and I've unsubscribed from Paramount Plus, Peacock, Fubo, Sling, YouTube and ESPN+ over the last couple of years. 

The buffoonery of the TV hosts Rebecca Lowe, Kate Abdo, Micah Richards, and Jamie Carragher is not an incentive either.  At the bootom of this unsavory barrel of providers is Fox Sports and I expect that coverage of the 2026 World Cup will be quite execrable. So I've just stopped watching apart from the occasional Champions League game (I sign up for streaming and unsubcsribe immediately after the game of interest) and clips on You Tube.
