PL to create inhouse media channel

Just heard on Talksport that the PL have announced in a press release that they are going to launch their own inhouse media channel from the start of the 26/27 season. Looks like the Netflix style subscription that we were discussing in recent weeks might not be too far off.

Streaming games is crap. Amazon are schit at it, the PL will be too.

Unless they have their own TV channel it's a schit idea.

Amazon's coverage is brilliant.

Was a bit glitchy the first year they did it but since then its been pretty much on par with live TV. Better than anything on SkyGo/iPlayer/ITVx etc.

Can’t say I’ve noticed too much difference, if anything it was worse

Except Sky are never beaten to goal news by twitter etc.

Amazon are every time.

I've always found Prime to have quality issues from wherever I've watched it so doubt i'm the only one.

Are you browsing twitter football pages while watching games? If so, why?

With HBO set to enter the European and UK markets, Sky is facing big challenges to stay at the top of the premium content game. HBO produces a number of high-quality, exclusive shows that pulls in viewers. This puts Sky under even more pressure, as it relies heavily on deals with providers like HBO due to its limited original content offerings.

Right now, Sky’s biggest draw in the UK is the EPL. For many people, football is the main reason they subscribe. But if Sky were to lose those rights, it could be a deathnell. They wouldn’t have much else to stand out in a market already packed with major players especially in the digital streaming space.

Things could get even trickier if the EPL decides to launch its own streaming platform. That would cut out Sky completely, allowing the league to connect directly with fans. By offering season passes or subscriptions to every game, the EPL could attract a huge audience and keep all the revenue for itself. The EPL owes much of its success to Sky, so could the league really bite the hand that feeds it? Or perhaps the EPL is simply preparing for Sky’s eventual decline. With Sky's revenues likely to shrink, the age of record breaking deals with Sky might already be a thing of the past.

Might affect MUTV and other football club channels.

Given Utd's current demise I can't imagine that covers a lot of people
The Chelsea TV channel was just a bad...gone now
