BT Sport is doomed, you get 36 Premiership games compared to 116 with Sky. ESPN has lost all their good stuff.

You can get Sky Broadband, using "infinity" speeds too.

BSkyB's marketing budget last year was more than one billion....

Should also add than ESPN are on the verge of completely withdrawing from Europe, Disney is not investing in Sport any more.

Sky has spent time building portfolio of F1, Cricket, Tennis, Golf. Think BT have quite limited market, shall see. We just had another increased in Subscriber numbers, next quarter results should be interesting :)

Its no more unfair than Sky taking all the sport off the FTA channels.

Competition is good, except for the monopoly company, which is why Sky have been having some serious toy throwing sessions.


BT are 100% committed to BT Sport, so be under no illusion that they will pull the plug.


Costs - free if you are a retail BT Broadband customer, however its delivered (Terrestrial, Satelite, IPTV). I stress retail, as if you have a BT Business product, its not free.

I think we all know if that was really the case, Sky wouldn't be playing silly buggers ;)

Add £5 to Lizzie's number for bt sports 1 and 2 and you get also the iPad app to watch bt sports anywhere. 6pm launch approaches.

You, as a BT broadband customer, get them for free forever (as currently envisaged), for SD.  Its only HD that you get for free for one year only.

If Sky and BT have any sense, they will get their acts together and cooperate, else the only winner (for football) will be the FA. The last set of real premiership bidding hit Sky hard financially, and killed ONDigital.

However, given the way Sky have refused to cooperate, I can't see that happening.


I reckon we'll see BT honing what they want, as they are new to this.

I'm just glad I don't care for watching a bunch of mouth-breathers chasing after an inflated pig's bladder.  ;)

As far as I'm concerned, they can both get rooted. :P

I feel exactly the same way.

And as I refuse to buy Sky, and can't get BT Sport (my BT Infinity is a business product), I really couldn't give a monkeys ;D

Biggest problem BT have is just 36 football premiership games, no other big sports. May stop a few leaving, but cannot see vast numbers leaving for BT for a lot less sport and value added products.

I'm same as Albitz here.We currently watch MotoGP on Eurosport which we'll lose at the end of this season,but there's absolutely no way I'm going to BT for anything.As for football I will not allow it on TV no matter who the service provider is.

So...is the subscription just for the actual premiership games? I'm watching Man City v Bayern Munich now.
