So NASCAR ratings are soft? I'd like to think that they alienated much of their audience when they went off the FOTA distribution and onto MPVD-only channels. I lost interest when I couldn't watch the races any longer because of this. I didn't even renew my seats this year for the local event. Reality is that there are probably other factors at work since only 10% of the population uses OTA. But I would like to think they have alienated people interested in their sport when they did so. I wonder how much momentum is lost when programming goes off OTA channels? Could it be a partial factor? I would like to think so. Perhaps it's only wishful thinking.Dan
It all about money.Losing a few ratings points is a small price to pay when a much larger second revenue stream is available...
