Super League definitely needs to be looking at alternative deals for TV when the rights come around. Personally I think Sky are stuck 20 years in the past. Amazon are already looking at buying the rights to the IPL cricket apparently and if they or Google or any of the other tech firms look at buying Premier League rights, Sky can't compete and I think it will be end of them as a company.

It's easy to envisage buying a season pass to stream sports like they already have in the US, it would be great if something like that was available for Super League, a couple of live matches a week and access to recordings of all the other matches, I would certainly pay more for that than I would for Sky Sports.

I can't believe anyone actually pays full pops for sky. I've never paid more than 1/2 their published prices and have even had it for 75% off in the past. I currently pay £35 pm for sport in HD, movies and box sets plus they gave me a q box for £20. People need to learn to negotiate

I wonder if sky will start showing a weekly championship game next year with 2 channels to fill.

I hope so, some good games in the Championship.

Why not just make every live event on sky sports, pay per view? Similar to the way now tv works?
