By the weekend, more than half of Altice’s 5 million
subscribers could find themselves without access to the Walt Disney Company’s
networks (ABC, Disney, ESPN) if the distributor and content owner cannot come
to terms in the renewal of their retransmission agreement. The disruption, if it happens, would impact
Altice’s Optimum subscribers in the New York metro area. The dispute is a continuation of the tug of
war on where the value lies between content and distribution in the rapidly evolving
marketplace of how, where, and when households view video content.
