The problem is that the sports industry has been propped up for decades with cable, where every subscriber paid fees for sports whether they cared about it or not. If they charged a reasonable price to just the people who care, it'd be a devastating loss. And cable was structured the way it was because that's what made the most money, and though cable's slowly being replaced by streaming, don't be shocked when the streaming landscape starts to take on a similar shape. There's already lots of bundling going on, remember when streaming meant that you could save a ton of money by just paying for what you wanted? They're going to do whatever they can to keep the revenue from falling.

It’s even worse for NBA basketball. You can pay for the entire league and it’s not too expensive, but they specifically black out the local or neighboring team. So you have to pay to watch every team except your own. It’s honestly completely absurd.

Best I can do is half the games spread over 4 streaming services.
