As do DAZN in Germany and Italy (not via BT, of course).

Indeed if the complaints in Italy are anything to go by I’m not sure any billion pound organisation is going to bet their reputation on streaming only while charging €30 a month. There’s a backup DTT option in some regions but still many complaints and an emergency summit between the league and DAZN on what they are going to do about it.

The relative buttons it costs to maintain a linear presence looks good value.
Again, it’s the broadband that is letting them down in Italy.

My advice to any sports provider is to ensure their programming is also available on conventional channels also until such time as the country they are broadcasting to has properly completed their broadband rollout.
