I had the misfortune to watch some PL live coverage on Prime over the last few days. If that’s the best one of the world’s biggest streaming companies can do then for me there’s no future for live sport on streamers. Awful, sub-HD picture quality on my Sony and Panasonic TVs via VM V6 boxes and just as bad using a Roku device. So I then tried using the Prime apps on the smart TVs, just as poor. No rewind or pause capability on any of them.
And Amazon have been doing this for how many years? No wonder the don’t charge for it!
I ended up using the iPad Prime Video app. Image crystal clear and the action was more than a minute ahead of what I saw on the TV. In fact the Prime app was also ahead of the browser version on my laptop.
I have no idea what the future holds for PL coverage on TV but, on this evidence, I won’t be watching it via a streaming service unless things dramatically improve.
