NFL Network Exclusive Game info
WOW! has been a partner of the NFL Network since we launched the channel on our Digital Basic service in 2005. After we made the commitment to deliver the channel to our customers, the NFL Network secured the rights to air eight games during the regular season.. In order for WOW! to be authorized to show those games to our customers, the NFL Network is requiring WOW! to pay a substantial surcharge. We believe the surcharge they are demanding—in addition to the programming license fees that we already pay them— is unfair and unreasonable. We have requested NFL Network allow us to either offer the channel and 8 exclusive games in a separate programming package to ensure all WOW! customers don’t bear the burden of the NFL’s substantial surcharge, or allow us access to the 8 exclusive games under the more favorable terms they have reportedly made available to other cable operators in our area. At this time, the NFL Network has declined to consider either request. Consequently, they have not authorized WOW! to air these football games.
As sports fans ourselves, we know how frustrating this situation is to customers. However, we firmly believe our position is in the best interest of all WOW! customers – fans and non-fans alike.
