I think it is possible that Amazon could go for it this time, but if they do, they could decide to supplement their streaming service with some broadcast linear channels of their own. This would ensure that they had access to maximum audience share.

I very much agree about the future could be streaming for sports. Far too many tosh teams currently in the top flight. Sometimes I can’t even be bothered switching on for an “exciting” Bournemouth vs West Brom game etc.
I believe viewership are down? So that’ll mean ads are down. Sky must be starting to realise it’s value isn’t as high now. Teams like leeds, Derby, forest, Sheffield’s not being present doesn’t help either!
