Re: Will you pay extra for BT Sports?
i have voted 'depends on price' - cant see it being part of the XL pack- BT have sunk too much money into it.
As i have posted on other related threads cost will be key. i am leaning towards not subscribing unless i see it as good value for money.
i think BT have overbid in their keenness to acquire the Premier League- another thing to blame overpaid footballers for! ESPN clearly thought so and have decided quit their venture into the relatively small but relatively expensive UK pay TV sports market.
i am a self confessed sports nut but there is a point where you say this is costing too much. Whilst acquiring other football and other sports clearly Premier League Football is the marque event for both Sky and BT- whilst BT may have got more games than ESPN had they still fall way short of Sky's package.
i have doubts to how many will subscribe to both and if it comes down to choosing one over the other then wonder how many punters BT will take from Sky.
Perhaps if they price it right they might get a few in which case you never know sky might drop their price. Unlikely i know but if it meant Sky getting one over a competitor maybe ????
