If the objective was to test the water surely they would not have any free offers on Prime during December? I imagine most people watching either already had Prime or took the free trial to watch the football.

As for your assertion that there were no major issues - there have been enough comments/coverage to the contrary, with stuttering streams, poor picture quality on some matches and some having the inability to be able to stream the games at all.

Hate to see what it would be like if they did have major issues!
The word 'may'' is significant here. But, yes, we all know that Sky charge the maximum they can get away with, and we also know that Amazon is first and foremost a retailer. They have a reputation for low pricing and they can use football to drive sales.

By the way, the December matches are being shown free on Amazon. Can you imagine Sky doing that for any Premiership matches?
