✦AI Summary
Sling TV is discontinuing its 'Sling Pass' feature, which allowed users to purchase short-term access to cable channels without a monthly subscription. The decision follows legal pressure from Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery regarding the service's model.
Why it matters
This move signals a retreat from flexible, à la carte streaming options in the face of pressure from major media conglomerates.
Dish-owned Sling TV will no longer be offering its Sling Pass feature that allowed people to buy a single day of cable TV programming at a time, as reported by The Desk.
