They're about to release a very expensive Lord of the Rings series, so very mixed messages coming from them. At least with Netflix, a pure streaming company, we know they're serious about streaming, but Amazon wants to be top dog in everything, so I'm not going to rule them out anytime soon.

l am talking in particular about the UK Premier League football TV rights as they are not going to pay £5 billion just for just one countries football rights as it makes no business sense to them at all and never has done wherever with the Lord of the Rings series they are likely to get their money back again and again through the many monetary avenues that are open to them.
