Cable Forum - General ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

What is the point of the box number showing? At first I thought it was to try and discourage streaming but if that is the reason then it seems completely pointless because its not as if any of the streamers subscribe to VM or Sky.

It shows the box number that the stream originates from so that box can be disconnected and investigated.

It is still completely pointless, however, since all you have to do is record it and watch the recording as live and the number disappears.

Any word on how much Premier Sports will be asking for as a monthly subscription yet?

Agreed. I love ice hockey but you have to stop somewhere. The cost of watching sport on tv is getting ridiculous with the fragmentation of sports rights across different pay channels.

I wouldn't be too sure of that if you believe what prem sport said before VM got BT sports they were only looking for a fraction for wholesale so maybe, just maybe it's here to stay

Also just had a £6 price increase so looking for some return here

Premier Sports have two sports I'm pretty fond of , Ice Hockey and Rugby League sadly they do not have a HD channel meaning there offering is devalued to me.
