Bearing in mind the colossal broadband traffic used to get streams to people it isn't unreasonable for them to pay a contribution towards the cost in some way |

Re: Streaming services news, offers and general chit chat
It’s nothing to do with the bandwidth they use. Streamers are potentially within the remit of a new online sales tax that’s supposed to redress the balance between physical high street stores which pay business rates and online retailers that don’t. But it’s only at the consultation stage at the moment, and we’re quite some way away from any new tax being announced.

Streamers are (and if OBs vision does come to fruition) will continue to increase the required fixed and mobile infrastructure capacity. While not the purpose of the tax - it will have an impact on the commercial viability of broadband services and ultimately where the state has to intervene to provide infrastructure if internet users won’t foot the bill.

Not my thought process, just something reported as a possibility in the press. As others have replied, streaming has increased broadband usage particularly in WFH era. |

I subscribed about 8 years ago for my pup, he certainly reacted to it. I think it’s more of a relaunch to gain momentum if anything There is certainly nothing new apart from the price increase (it used to be a fiver a month) |

Vince isn't going to be happy WWE looking to put WWE Network on another streaming service in UK. https://cultaholic.com/posts/nick-kh...etwork-uk-deal thanks to wwehbk on DS for the info.
My feeling is it'll be Peacock. |
