Sports Tech episode 18: EPL Kicks Off All Behind A Paywall
from The Business of Sport by Sportsfinda · host Sportsfinda Inc
Show notes: With the EPL kicking off this weekend, the rights in Australia are fully paywalled behind Optus. No EPL on SBS for 2019-2020 season! Then from there, Optus have said they have 700,000 active subscribing accounts watching Live & VOD football on Optus Sport. We talk about the telco’s strategy in taking on some many football rights and if it makes financial sense in our nonsensical way. The Nine Network continue their summer tennis push with the rights to the ATP Cup. Ahmad and Clint then close out with a ramble about OTT and digital broadcasters in Australia.
