"NFL Plus" would charge customers in the range of $5 a month,
with live games streaming to tablets and phones being the
primary selling point.
Still, those games would be limited to games fans can already
receive in their local markets, which calls into question how
valuable a service this might actually be for many fans.
From the NFL's perspective, having access to monthly
subscriptions dollars as well as customer data is a highly
appealing prospect. But it remains to be seen what other content
in addition to games will be available to draw fan interest.
Possibilities listed by SBJ include podcasts, radio and various
team-produced pieces of content.
Multiple media outlets have further speculated that the league
may also house its "Sunday Ticket" package within the new
format, though the league is currently bidding that package out.
