Understanding TV costs
How rising fees from networks and broadcasters impact Breezeline prices
Retransmission Fees: The fastest-rising TV cost
Retransmission (retrans) fees are payments that TV providers must make to broadcasters to carry their channels. These fees are the fastest rising part of your TV bill, going from $200 million in 2006 to an estimated $15.4 billion in 2024, a massive 7,600% increase in less than 20 years.2
Big broadcast keeps getting bigger
The majority of TV channels are owned by only a handful of cable networks². These networks hold a lot of power over prices that TV providers such as Breezeline have to pay. They also dictate which channels and TV lineups can be packaged and offered to our customers.
