Interesting that their journalist/source clearly doesn’t consider Amazon, who got their rights in the bargain bucket, under threat or part of the conversation for more.
The attempt to shakedown Sky/BT couldn’t be more obvious.

Good analysis re who penned the original article and where its source might be. Paddington more than Cupertino.
I was surprised by the article not mentioning Amazon - maybe a victim of over-enthusiastic editing at the Mail but something that Old Boy's read of choice imore.com should have corrected if they knew much about the Premier League Rights.

Sky could be a major streaming service before than in OB’s eyes.

Yes, I know that, Andrew. It's just sloppy wording. You take things too literally.

They are indeed. However, that doesn't make the thrust of the report wrong. Grammatical errors appear in news stories all the time.

And you put your own interpretation on things too liberally*
We read what it actually says, you read what you want it to say…
*not a word I thought I would ever have to use related to you…

Except that they specifically mentioned Sky and BT.

Yes, the Daily Mail sports reporter seems oblivious to who actually broadcasts the matches.

No. Sky still hold the rights for what they currently broadcast throughout the season. 3x Sunday games (first choice in the earlier time slots, and as shown in America for the late game), a Monday game (again chosen by the NFL partner in the US), playoffs, Super Bowl, etc.
Essentially this is the rights to every other game throughout the season.
What isn’t clear is whether the DAZN package will duplicate the Sky games on a non-exclusive basis or whether they are blacked out in the UK.
Interesting to note though: minor rights in a ten year contract. Worryingly for UK consumers facing a price rise is there’s a suggestion this will be an add on!

When I had it, NFL Game Pass in the UK had the live Regular Season Sunday games carried by Sky Sports blocked.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
DAZN reportedly set to bid big for Premier League rights. Could this spell the end of the 3pm blackout?
