That's right. People are obsessing over platforms when they should be concentrating on content.

I would fully expect both BT and VM to add the service to their boxes.

Indeed it would be folly not to do it.

Which they paid peanuts for (considerably less than BBC/ITV pay for the 6 Nations - I seriously doubt they will be looking to reduce revenue by putting it on PPV tv.

I can see Uefa doing the same with a new package of champions league rights and Europa League rights for streaming only. 1 game per week from each competition. Rights holders want to create competition for their rights. It's pretty much how Amazon got their foot in the door. I can see Dazn or Amazon sitting with nearly 50 live games per season on the cheap with Sky and BT still able to show the same amount of games. Would not surprise me if Dazn snap up the Six Nations

Some info on Dazn here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DAZN?wprov=sfti1

There is already a package of 24 games for streaming - currently Amazon paid very little to have the exclusive rights to these 2 rounds of games.

I would only expect the same in the next deal, if DAZN are coming in then it would have a huge inflationary effect on that package - I seriously doubt there would be another package for streamers at this point.

However, if a streamer wants more they could always bid for one of the traditional packages.

As for the 6 Nations, I would expect changes to its level which would mean it could only be on Free to Air TV. (Their was uproar before when England home games were on sky - the RFU soon backed off). If it is allowed to be on Pay TV expect Sky or BT to come in with a sizeable bid for most games with possibility of 1 game a round being on Free to Air TV.

Hi all- getting a weird message then trying to stream from my phone “out of house streaming isn’t permitted on this device”

To be honest I haven’t used the app in a while so it may be that

Do you have the maximun number of devices already registered? If so remove one.

Are you using the TV Control app rather than the TV Go app?

The former only steams locally from your TV box, is a remote control and allows setting recordings remotely.

The latter is the one for streaming channels in and out of the house.

I wouldn’t assume this will necessarily delay their eventual release. Netflix doesn’t work to seasons and frankly I’ve never been able to follow the logic of exactly how and when they drop new material, assuming there is any logic to it at all. They might just as easily have finished making these shows and then sat on them another three months.

Its not just Netflix but many production companies are doing it also.

NCIS haver announced no more production for this season so it will end at episode 20 and they will pick it up again next season.

That’s a slightly different scenario, because they’re making shows to fit a broadcast schedule. They have to be ready when the network says so and they have to give maximum notice if hey can’t fulfil the order because the network will then have specific time slots to fill and it will have to find something else to put in.

Netflix usually drops entire seasons at once and it rarely does so on a strict annual schedule. So even if ST4 is suspended for now, we will still get the entire season eventually and given Netflix’s erratic release scheduling we might not get it much later than we would have anyway.
