Earlier, Dish Network subscribers had to pay for the sports channels included in their packages, even the ones who didn\u2019t follow sports. However, the new \u201cskinny\u201d bundle offer has excluded many sports channels in the Dish network channel list including ESPN.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sports channels are included in majority of the packages offered by satellite networks, and this is because of the huge amount of sports followers in the country. The major problem however, which raises due to the inclusion of these channels in majority of the packages, is that even the subscribers who don\u2019t follow sports have to pay for these channels.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The new \u201cFlex Pack\u201d offered by Dish Network changes everything. Available to the customers at an affordable rate of $30 per month excluding tax and fees, this pack allows you to skip the sports channels you don\u2019t watch. In fact, Dish is not the first satellite TV provider to exclude sports channels in a package. Comcast and Verizon Fios are already offering special packages with and other sports channels excluded. Even Verizon\u2019s exclusion of ESPN from their package urged ESPN Network to sue the company.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Craig Moffett of MoffettNathanson Research said that Custom TV by Verizon has \u201cbeen diluted pretty badly.\u201d But according to Verizon spokesman Ray McConville, the revised version of Custom TV is more popular and the changes made in the revised version were related to the customer feedback.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_999\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-999\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-999\" class=\"wp-image-999 size-medium\" title=\"No Sports Package\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Dish-Network5-e1470824181677-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Dish Network\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Dish-Network5-e1470824181677-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Dish-Network5-e1470824181677.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-999\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em><strong>Economic Package From Dish<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Warren Schlichting, Dish Network\u2019s executive vice president of marketing, programming, and media sales, announced about the new packages and said that Dish has a \u201ca good relationship with ESPN\u201d and it takes \u201ccooperation on both sides\u201d.
