As the saying goes---"a fool and his money are soon parted"
The media fools people into parting with their money.
So the question remains---are you a fool or are you being fooled?

Sky try to lure you in for 3 years. I smell a rat. Maybe the negotiations are not going well.

Thay deal actually went live 2 weeks for a 1 day flash sale before the negotiations were done for the rights , I called sky then and they reduced my sky bill by £18 a month so now I pay £15 instead of £28 for the full sports package now

The Premier League has awarded ELEVEN SPORTS exclusive rights to broadcast the competition in Taiwan for the three seasons from 2019/20 to 2021/22.
ELEVEN SPORTS is already a broadcast partner of the League but, from 2019/20, will have exclusive rights to broadcast all 380 matches for the three-year term

Sky & BT want to pay the same as before but charge more on subscriptions, they're afraid of the competition which will force them to up their bids.
The loser will be the customer in paying more or having to subscribe to various companies to watch games.

Just as that is happening with streaming suppliers.
IE: netflix, prime and apple releasing there services. To view what you want will cost more as it will be across more platforms, TV companies. If it was just one company showed footie at £30pm is not to bad, but now sky, BT and newer show in town “amazon”.
Only ones maki g the money is TV companies and footballers, while those that enjoy footie have to pay 3 times.

Then the showers of sh*ts wonder why people use C/S & IP*V.

Just like Netflix v Amazon true competition would be to allow (or force) multiple platforms to have non exclusive access to packages. Then we would see genuine competition on price and vast improvements on innovation and service.
