I never mentioned Amazon - I referred to DTC which to me means the Premier League themselves setting up a method of controlling all facets of coverage.
The risks of not getting enough subscribers is huge - I suspect the experience of Eleven Sports will have been a big warning to anyone thinking of doing so.
You seem obsessed with Amazon!
I am sure they have the funds to do it should they wish to, just don't see it happening in the next 5 years - my opinion as you have yours.

The Sports leagues are more likely to dip their toes in the water with OTT direct to consumer in territories they have smaller financial returns to see the viability before looking to launch elsewhere.

Totally agree with that - overseas money being the cream on the rather large home market cake
