Shrewd move given Germany's World Cup success.

I think pricing hangs on those EPL rights. By the time that BT is showing Champions League matches in 2015/16, it will know what EPL rights it has from the 2016/17 season onwards and can set its prices accordingly. (It would be a bit strange for it to push up the price of BT Sport in 2015/16 if it knew that from 2016/17 it had won an inferior EPL rights package.)
