Dodgers Fans May Have To Switch To Time Warner Cable Inc (NYSE:TWC)
The relationship between Time Warner Cable Inc (NYSE:TWC) and the Los Angeles Dodgers has gone to shambles just as the baseball season takes off and the cable company is urging Dodgers’ fans to switch their cable providers if they wish to keep watching their team in the new season.

Time Warner claims that it offers 150 regular season Dodgers games through its channel, SportsNet LA but it is a very pricey affair. The company claims that it has offered discounted prices this year in an attempt to attract Cox Communications and DIRECTV (NASDAQ:DTV) but none of them are showing interest. Since these plans failed to take off, the firm is now trying to attract Dodgers fans who do not receive SportsNet LA to subscribe to its service.
Time Warner’s spokesman Andrew Fegyveresi released a statement on Thursday saying the other cable providers have turned down its offers. He revealed that the company has presented both short-term and long-term deals at prices that have been discounted by as much as 30%. He also revealed that the firm has also called for arbitration and set the same prices as those charged for the sports networks in the regional areas and offered to meet in convenient places, but this also did not work.
Despite the company’s call for Dodgers fans to switch to its network, the LA market is underserved. Only 2 million households currently have access to Dodgers games through SportsNet LA. Roughly 70% of the fans in LA did not have access to the channel during the previous season of the National League West Champions. 2016 also happens to be an important year for Dodgers fans because famed broadcaster Vin Scully will host his 68th and last season of commentary this year.
The other companies have not made any statements about their decisions to turn down Time Warner’s offer. This year is, therefore, building up to what seems to be the making of another underserved season for Dodgers fans.

Reports Indicate That Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) Is Depolarizing TV
A research study has reported that Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) has a significant impact on how Americans Watch TV and has been the major reason Americans have been watching less TV.
The report which was presented by Michael Nathanson of MoffettNathanson claims TV watching has decreased by 3% over the past year. People are instead shifting their attention the content streaming platform provided by the company. The report also suggests that Netflix is responsible for about 50% of the overall decline in the TV viewership culture in the US. It also estimates that Americans streamed about 29 billion hours of video last year while the company’s global users watched 42.5 billion hours of content on the streaming platform.
Nathanson stated that the numbers were an indicator that Netflix and other streaming services are growing in popularity. He further added that streaming hours will add up to 14% of TV viewing by 2020, but this does not mean streaming content providers will render cable TV companies obsolete. Nevertheless, Netflix has proven to be quite influential in the TV industry.
Some TV companies such as Time Warner Cable Inc (NYSE:TWC) are contemplating ideas to counter the competition, and one of the major strategies involves coming up with their own video on demand streaming services. Nonetheless, Time Warner does not exactly view Netflix as a threat because viewership in some of its networks including Discovery Communications, AMC Networks, and Scripps Networks Interactive has been on the rise.
Some of the companies that registered declining popularity include Viacom, Inc. (NASDAQ:VIAB) WITH A 13% decline, A&E with a 15% decline while Walt Disney Co (NYSE:DIS) and NBCUniversal dropped by 5%. Households with Netflix subscriptions watched less cable TV. The study did not take into account the number of TV viewers that watch television networks using mobile devices and streaming websites. Netflix data was however taken from households only to even out the playing field. Therefore, there is a definite impact on TV watching habits from popular content streaming services.

As a rule of thumb, a stock with a PEG of between 0 and 1 is usually considered to be underpriced, between 1 and 2 to be at fair value and over 2 to be overpriced. Based on the PEG ratio of TWC being 3.05, we consider Time Warner Cable Inc. to likely be overpriced.
