Got sent it a few days ago John.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
 

I got it today, email is slow here in London ;)

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
 

I imagine that form is to work out the level of interest from their customers. If there's sufficient interest, then they may well be willing to stretch a little bit more financially to make sure they acquire the channels for the VM platform.

Thanks for the links.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
 

Strong rumour in the investment world is that BT customers will get the sports channel free and it will be a tenner for non BT customers. They think it will be announced when they announce their results this week

Interesting times ahead my friends, very interesting!

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
 

Well we shall see what comes out of the wash this week TB and then thy die is cast as to whether it will be a success or not.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
 

that price structure would not surprise me...

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
 

Exactly. I think £10 is very reasonable considerin the level of rights they have acquired compared to Setanta and ESPN who also charged a tenner.

I think BT customers will only get it free if they take fibre bb.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
 

If true it sounds pretty reasonable.

I am willing to go up to £12 but after that I don't think it's worth it

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
 

Whilst a tenner is very good value considering the sheer range of sporting rights they've snapped up, I can't help thinking that those of us who've got used to espn being included in the xl pack will struggle to justify the extra outlay. But for Sky customers, and Virgin customers on lower tiers, who are already paying an espn sub, £10 represents good value.
