Remember Duke big man Matt Christensen’s father Clayton?
He really pushed the idea of disruption into people’s consciousness. If you don’t know, it’s the idea that business is often disrupted by small, agile competitors who figure something out that bigger companies can’t replicate. Netflix vs. Blockbuster is a great example. Tesla may become one too, if it survives.
So as Disney and ESPN move into streaming more as cord cutting goes up, keep an eye on competitor DAZN. That company could emerge as a key player in the sports streaming world.
Meanwhile, smaller players are getting out of cable altogether - and in at least one case urging customers to move to streaming services and telling them how to go about it.
