Sling TV drops its one-day cable passes

Sling TV 取消其单日有线电视通行证服务

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. 据 The Desk 报道，Dish 旗下的 Sling TV 将不再提供其“Sling Pass”功能，该功能此前允许用户按需购买单日的有线电视节目。

The feature was announced last year and offered a day pass, a weekend pass, and a week-long pass option to be able to watch channels like ESPN and CNN without a full-month cable subscription. But soon after it launched, Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery sued Sling TV over Sling Pass, though a federal judge ruled against Disney in its request for a preliminary injunction to block the feature. 该功能于去年发布，提供单日、周末和周通行证选项，让用户无需订阅整月有线电视即可观看 ESPN 和 CNN 等频道。但在该功能推出后不久，迪士尼和华纳兄弟探索公司就 Sling Pass 对 Sling TV 提起了诉讼，尽管一位联邦法官驳回了迪士尼要求发布初步禁令以阻止该功能的请求。

“Sling was built to give our customers the ultimate control over their entertainment, and Sling Passes delivered on that promise for millions,” Sling TV says in a statement on its website. “Though Sling Passes are no longer available, we look forward to continuing to innovate and showing our customers new ways to experience the content they love.” The Desk also reports that the note was sent to customers. Sling TV 在其网站的一份声明中表示：“Sling 的宗旨是让客户对自己的娱乐体验拥有最终控制权，而 Sling Pass 为数百万用户兑现了这一承诺。虽然 Sling Pass 已不再提供，但我们期待继续创新，并向客户展示体验他们所喜爱内容的新方式。”The Desk 还报道称，该通知已发送给相关客户。
