However, nobody knows for sure what will happen so let's hope there will be better value for all in relation to sports viewing in the future. Some of the short term sports streaming arrangements have not exactly filled everyone with confidence, but I think there will be significant improvements in the medium term, particularly if Amazon go for it sooner rather than later.

The current Amazon packages were not originally sold and are likely to have been attained dirt cheap. Therefor not much to lose by giving free viewing.
To win any of the serious packages will involve a much larger investment - if you believe you will get this for nothing dream on (just my opinion of course but time will tell)
