What's this?

It's a 3 year window to get all the Omnibus deals renegotiated.


I have no doubt that Disney will get the ACC Network included and distributed by all of the major carriers. Unfortunately Comcast has their deal up for renewal in 2 more years. The SEC had the benefit of launching when Comcast was entering their omnibus deal.

But the ACC will have increased distribution over the next 2 years. ATT U-verse is next in December. Cox and Dish are in 2020, and Comcast is in 2021. If would be nice to see some of these pick up the ACCN earlier, but it can't be counted on. Those with Cox and Comcast can drop the TV portion, keep the internet, and sign up for one of the streaming services that have the ACCN in the meantime.
