Amazon is getting access to the Eurosport Player app and 4K content according to RXTVLog.

VM used to have something that labelled itself Eurosport Player, but wasn't, as it was just sports news headlines, not sporting events coverage like the mobile/tablet subscription app of the same name.

The latter is coming to Amazon decices with 4K. Obviously extra sports coverage is desirable, maybe Virgin Media can get the same thung as part of any new deal. Does anyone have any idea when the deal that Eurosport is part of is due for renewal?

I'm not suggesting VM should add it to a subscription pack like Hayu is, though it would pad out the currently extremely small Personal Pick pack that is Sport Lite, I am just thinking it could be a similar arrangement to Netflix/Prime Video with the app added and subscription an add-on.
