That would be a real $5 discount... and actually be, well, logical. Pivot was a failure because of an inability to deliver full channel lineups (enabling the customer to actually watch the cable lineup that they're paying for). It wound up being Sprint TV Premier with HBO. And that wasn't worth the price, or the convoluted billing. Cable companies wanted an MVNO, Sprint wanted a plan add-on... and they never really agreed on how to handle that long term. Honestly, the $39.99 bundle price should include Pick 2 service.

That's the only way I see this being a good deal. Unless they get the pricing right... it's going to be Pivot all over again...
