> I also do not understand why people complain about having the choice to not pay for things they do not want to watch.

Are you a sports fan? Because sports fans don't have the choice to not pay for things they do not want to watch. If you want a sports package, you usually have to buy it as an add-on to the base package, even if there's not a single show you want to watch on the base package.



Not enough to want to jump through the hoops that sports organizations require today.

I would be willing to watch if it involved going to the official website or app and pressing a few buttons to pay. I am not interested in learning about blackout regions and various packages or contracts with stipulations.


Yeah, if watching sports involves so much expense and hassle, it's time to realize that it's just not that important, and find something else for entertainment. There are many alternatives.
