Barbourville Utilities leaves the Cable TV subscription business for Internet services

According to this article its traditional TV model is contracted out to Dish and OTT Services. Barbourville is going to be mainly an internet provider.

“While Barbourville Utilities will no longer offer cable TV service to new customers, we are not leaving our valued customers without alternatives,” the company said on its website. “With our BLINK high-speed internet service you can easily stream your choice of subscription television services, or we can help connect you to more traditional live TV via satellite.”



The Dish deal is a promise of a two-year price guarantee, free installation, and a $100 gift card underwritten by Barbourville Utilities. Not surprisingly, it is encouraging them to stick with BLINK for their broadband.


But it also points out that subs don‘t have to have a traditional service to watch TV, thanks to streaming services including Sling TV, Hulu Plus Live TV, and YouTube TV.
