Not many but will probably rise soon when the new series of Games of Thrones starts.

Interesting to see this situation in Italy.
"The Italian competition authority has issued €66 million in fines to the Italian football league and its broadcast partners Mediaset and Sky.
Rather than awarding the rights on the basis it had promoted, the league had at the suggestion of Infront, implemented an agreed allocation between two main competitors."
This meant that broadcasters including Discovery were frozen out of package D.

Fines split:
- Mediaset €51.4 million
- Sports rights brokers Infront €9 million
- Sky €4m
- the league €2m
