The tracks set these rates.
What's funny is that when there are impasses when tracks fight for higher fees, message boards get filled with people screaming about the piggish nature of racetracks, yet here they are apparently being " ripped off. " Both arguments can't be true.
It's a complicated discussion.

I have never once screamed about the piggish nature of the tracks. I'm always on the side of the horsemen / organization that puts on the racing product.
I've always thought the tracks get the raw end of the deal. Obviously, they negotiate the deals, but what are they going to do? Not sell the signal & go out of business?
sorry for the poor oversimplification, or gross misrepresentation
