Agreed reading my post back I worded it poorly , I was more meaning in an ideal world where the fan was put first and every platform gained equal access.

Of course these bumper paydays for the premier league are reliant on people continuing to subscribe to pay TV , whilst figures are holding their own at the moment it can easily go the other way especially as the streaming market matures , more and more US Sports broadcasters are offering online only access with no need for a pay TV subscription.
