@MrKieranb perhaps i'm missing something but out of interrest how do the likes of Comcast and other TV providers like EE and Virgin Media have a say in what WDB decide to do with their channels and the portfolio of sports rights they hold?
Indeed it was always WBD's intention to merge Eurosport into it's new sports channel, (known now as TNT Sport), once it aquired BT Sport, so not surprising to those of us that subscribed to BT Sport at the time. Comcast wouldn't have any say in this decision.

Typical reply when someone cannot defend their view 🙄

@Daniel0210 Thanks for Ur view but again I disagree everything is based of money agreements Comcast is a big company sure they can work with WBD and if someone isn't happy doesn't mean I ain't entitled to my view? Unfortunately never gonna agree nowadays 😕

@Annie+UK can't defend my view now you are just trolling remember people are entitled to views just because you disagree and claim I can't defend myself that's out of order Annie! Good day

@Daniel0210 Agreed yes it's a public forum but end of the day I agree and disagree M8 not hating on anyone but I pay for a service and I ain't happy with what's available hence my view good day 🙂

In the meantime, and I'm serious here, Eurosport Germany is still in the clear at 19.2 E. So if you have a dish repoint it in that direction, you may need a new receiver, but they are as cheap as chips. Probably haven't got an English sound track though. But it's a viable option.

@Hunter2660 Why wouldn't Comcast have a say? 🙄 It's a agreement based of money why wouldn't WBD want to work with Sky/Comcast to keep Eurosport on platform entitled to Ur view M8 but again I disagree do some research into Comcast and WBD on how they work together
28 Jan 2025 04:44 PM
@Hunter2660 Good shout don't think I'm moaning just about Eurosport tho just finding I'm only watching sports and with stuff moving to TNT it makes more sense to get Now tv and pay as I go nowadays

Vote with your wallet and don't subscribe. Watch the highlights at another time. The end of live sport .

Always possible WBD is using the UK as a testbed to see how ending broadcast channels affects app subscription uptake...
It's a nice little self-contained market compared to mainland Europe.

@TimmyBGood Yh I agree with you same with physical media some studios have only been focusing on different markets but UK and with the terrestrial TV slowly dying out and Astra Satellites slowly coming to the end of life seems they are making decisions to close channels year on till the end comes in 2028/9 and seeing how this impacts both sides of things I also think in next few years only free to air sky channels will remain as they recently closed SD channels to free space again just a idea and view take care 🙂

Very likely, however Eurosport is in quite a few European markets, not sure how they will fare on the continent if they removed Europsort 🙂
