Practice makes perfect!
Seriously, that is a problem and needs to be addressed. And as I was alluding to, that's why Amazon needed a trial run with a minor package.
Only when they have addressed these will they make a major bid.

Other companies have been streaming HD content online for years without issue.
It's amateur hour if you are suggesting this is in any way acceptable or a 'trial'. This is supposedly the most attractive sports content in the world.

Other companies? Amazon had to test itself itself!
What planet are you on?

"Itself itself"?
Is there a flaw in the matrix?

Off topic. I don’t do operations.
As a moderator, Hugh, you should be ashamed.
If you disagree with me, just say so, and why.
Of course, you won’t.

With their “deep pockets” they couldn’t hire experts and consultants from the industry who have been streaming HD for years?
Interesting.

Yes, that should have read ‘itself for itself’.
But then, you knew then, anyway, didn’t you?
Why are you, as moderator, being such a troll? Sorry, but please get yourself together. Typos happen all the time, and some are pretty obvious, at least to most of us.
If I have over-estimated you, Hugh, please accept my deepest apologies.

Allthough the match itself was a borefest lol.

As others have said, sports streaming is ancient - Eurosport Player is 12 years old. Back in 2008, Virgin Media didn't even have Tivo!
The only things being tested here are forum members' intelligence and viewers' patience.
What Amazon will be analysing is the uptake in Prime subscriptions, retention of sports viewers v £ spent on each sport, etc.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
Amazon want to have a word with Premier Sports. Currently enjoying HD quality Scottish football streamed from my Android phone to a Chromecast.
No audio issues.

The words quality, Scottish and football ought never to appear in the same sentence.
