Finally: Every Baseball Team’s Sports Network Is Available On At Least One Streaming Service

As YouTube TV’s recent rate hike shows, these services themselves are not immune to rising programming costs.

Hence, the research firm Parks Associates estimated at the end of June that 41% of streaming customers churned out of one service or another in the second quarter of 2020, up from 35% in Q1.
