The Canadian Press article I read yesterday said commercial customers would still get Sunday Ticket.Does this mean that sports bars will also no longer get Sundayticket thru cable and will have to go thru DAZN to show football?
How would they respond exactly? They lost the rights fairly and squarely to DAZN, as sold to them by the NFL.I wonder how Bell and Rogers are going to respond to DAZN's launching in Canada. Since they are OTT, no license is required.
SOL – that is part of living in the boondocks. You can't expect to have the same technology as an urban centre. Blame the government and telcos for that.So what happens to rural NFL RedZone subscribers who can't stream because they have speed or data cap issues? We're just SOL I guess?
I've seen very few complaints about their service in the past few months and I've had zero issues with their streams personally. They definitely had teething problems in the beginning though.A huge blow to TSN and a blow to consumers who will have to put up with the time delayed, buffered, frame starved offering that DAZN offers.
What are you talking about? Every game is streamed at the same time. You choose which one to watch. It isn't rocket science.it is a high cost to pick a game out of all of them and let's be frank how many times did the game you wanted to see was not picked up by TSN ? no idea how they'll deal with Europa League ,
I'm guessing DAZN paid way more than TSN and SN were willing to pay, especially considering how low ratings have always been for EPL.Not sure what Sportsnet and TSN are doing; but I guess they're giving up on soccer
Without researching it, I could have something to do with Discovery buying worldwide rights to PGA events.Anyone know what happened to the PGA Tour on DAZN, its no longer listed on their website?
Because TSN and SN aren't going to purchase rights to a sport that doesn't let them stream it online live or on-demand, especially now they both have their OTT offering.I don't understand why they sell Internet and TV rights in one bundle.
I'm sure DAZN will do its own pre- and post-game shows and hopefully they use some British talent who will be better than anyone TSN or SN employed. On the opposite spectrum, if DAZN hire their own commentators who are calling it off a TV in a studio instead of using the world feed like TSN and SN did, I'll be upset.I admit I will miss the "experts" at TSN and SN when DAZN takes over the Premier League next year ... On another note, I hope DAZN will continue to use Peter Drury and the other announcers who have been doing the Premier League.
No. Why would Sportsnet keep around two soccer TV hosts when they no longer have any soccer to televise? A giant waste of money. Their main online scribe John Molinaro also got ****-canned, but there's nothing of value lost with him.Is DAZN really hurting Canadian Media after taking over PL? Dismiss of Journalist and TV hosts in the past few days.
Nothing will happen to them. They have plenty of MLS coverage to keep them busy plus all FIFA tournaments and Euro. Wileman also does other sports occasionally such as rugby.Wonder what' s gonna happen to the TSN guys?
Luke Wileman is a pretty good play by play guy, and KJ is probably the best analyst in North America. Right now they have MLS (or at least TFC and Vancouver games). But surely that's not enough to keep them gainfully employed?
It makes me think that either a) beIN were asking too much money and DAZN told them to go kick rocks, or b) beIN didn't think they were getting a good deal from it and presumed everyone would go subscribe to beIN Connect to get their La Liga fix. The price decrease indicates this didn't happen.It makes me think that maybe DAZN is one who pulled the plug on their deal. Perhaps PL cost was too high.
