It’s died in the arse since they lost the EPL

Murdoch bought fox sports. Writing in the wall ever since that happened and Kayo launched

KAYO more easy to unsubscribe at season end.
Besides Netflix and Amazon Prime have better content to watch.
That reminds me need to cancel Kayo.....

Even in the US they have blackouts in the local area of the games to allow tv broadcasters to broadcast games. The NFL tried having Thursday nights games as exclusives for the NFL network and even that failed. At some point the Streaming services will turn their eye to live sport in Australia, Disney is already doing that in the US.

Basically the only way to do it is to go alone and then you are up for all the production work and costs the broadcast partners currently do for you.

At some point traditional foxtel will go, that is why News limited has started the transition to streaming through Kayo and Binge.

Yeah that is the way it will go, Telstra was getting streaming bundled with the naming rights and website deal. Kayo has in my opinion been great since it launched, I think Disney is the most likely to look most likely of the current streaming giants to make the jump to live sports here.

People realise Kayo is Foxtel's streaming service right..

As is Binge.

Yes which is why I said News Limited was transitioning to streaming through Kayo and Binge.

We had Foxtel for years, now we have Kayo. I’d say we’re part of an observable trend. Kayo, Binge etc. are the vs guards of Fox disentangling of Foxtel into discrete chunks - sport, movies, TV...

I’d love for the NRL to do more. I should be able to watch any NRL game on demand and a whole range of pre-2000 games. I’d pay a fee to access such a library if it was reasonable.
