Do you guys largely just want an ACCN for $? Will you even watch it?

I get that a streaming / new tech type network MAY not draw the same revenue as a dedicated cable channel, and if not, that's a bit of a bummer for VT. However as a cord cutter, a streaming option is FAR better for me as I won't buy cable just for an ACCN. If they get this into Sling / Vue or other streaming packages, I'm far more likely to pay a small fee to watch it.

So what's your actual interest in the launch of this channel?

BTW, this isn't just directed at you hokie4ever - just a question I have for the board since most discussions revolve around the revenue aspect rather than folks' personal interest in watching the content.
