It's ridiculous that I would need to spend >$300 to watch all 16 games my out-of-market NFL team plays, but $200 gets me all 162 games of my out-of-market baseball team. I know that the NFL is a more popular product than MLB, but come on.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[matte05]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 15th 2010 10:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Court rules against Comcast, Cablevision on new FCC program access rules]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/court-rules-against-comcast-cablevision-on-new-fcc-program-acce/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/court-rules-against-comcast-cablevision-on-new-fcc-program-acce/</guid><description><![CDATA[@matte05 The difference is DirecTV does not own the content for Sunday Ticket and NASCAR Hot Pass. Comcast is trying to obfuscate the issue at hand, which is content owners who are also content providers withholding programming content, directly or indirectly.<br><br>Also, as it's been stated before, broadcast networks would not pay anything close to what they are paying now for NFL broadcast rights if Sunday Ticket was available to cable.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hashim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 15th 2010 12:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Court rules against Comcast, Cablevision on new FCC program access rules]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/court-rules-against-comcast-cablevision-on-new-fcc-program-acce/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/court-rules-against-comcast-cablevision-on-new-fcc-program-acce/</guid><description><![CDATA[@ThaPhenom  <br>Well said. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[longhairbilly]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 16th 2010 4:41PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Court rules against Comcast, Cablevision on new FCC program access rules]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/court-rules-against-comcast-cablevision-on-new-fcc-program-acce/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/court-rules-against-comcast-cablevision-on-new-fcc-program-acce/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agreed, exclusivity hurts everyone. For me it's the fact that I can't get Comcast-owned NECN on DirecTV. And if Comcast merges with NBC I can't imagine how far this will go.

Why not give us channels they own before selling the rights to other providers. <br><br>As for the issue at hand, I think Comcast should just create divide into 2 or more divisions like MS did a few years ago so that they don't technically own the feeds anymore, and then set up an exclusivity contract with themselves. I don't think that either side is right, because they both have valid arguments. Does the principle really have the right to tell his students to share their pudding? And would it be nice for the student to not share with the poor kid that has not lunch? It wouldn't be nice, but it's definitely fair.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[engadgetcomexcludeengadget]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 15th 2010 4:54PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
