Sorry, just tech marketing IMHO.

Actually, it's not really something you have to subscribe to. If you want the NFL network at all, on Dish at least, you have to sign up for the sports package, which includes the RedZone channel at no additional cost. I was very skeptical of the concept upon hearing about it, and it really was not until I saw the channel in person that I realized it made a lot of boring games at least interesting enough to watch. Granted, I do have a bunch of fantasy teams so that makes it worth watching some of those games. Also, I don't watch it when my team is playing, I just watch their game, but it's nice when your team is not playing, but you want to watch football and don't really care who you're watching.

Time Warner Cable blows so hard this isn't even an option, neither is the NFL network. I'm seriously considering switching to Direct TV to get the NFL Ticket, I think over the course of the season it would pay for it's self since every time I have to go out to the bar to watch my team it ends up costing me more than $50 for food and drinks for the Fiancee and myself.
