There is plenty of new material in the pipeline so l don't think that will be a problem IMO.

I think they'll be over 100m by the end of the year when they add Europe and Asia to it.

As I posted on another thread.
Quote:
On Tuesday, Disney CEO Bob Iger teased when season two of The Mandalorian will debut, and also revealed that the Disney+ series could even launch spinoff shows based on its characters.
During an earnings call, the exec said The Mandalorian will return in October and will run beyond season two, "including the possibility of infusing it with more characters and taking those characters in their own direction in terms of series."

I suspect they’re just talking it up to push up the value of the rights.
The example they use of £35 a month in Singapore just because a combined sports offering charges that is fairly speculative - attributing no value to the other content.
Makes you think they don’t see Amazon or anyone buying worldwide rights in the near future though. As for the UK well everyone knows my stance on the challenges of any new entrants - and that would include the league themselves.

They'd need everyone in the country to subscribe to the EPL at 20 quid a month and they'd still not make as much money as they are getting now.
Sky and BT overpay massively. They won't want to rock the boat in the UK

Hardly call it desperate, the likes of Amazon and Netflix are already holding deals with various providers.
