Premier League coverage in different countries - How expensive is it in yours? (self.reddevils)

Luxuslev が 投稿

So this season there have coming a lot of reactions on the Premier League coverage here in Norway. The rights are held by an independent TV channel here in Norway, and they are pretty much regulating the prices as they feel is right. They are not part of any scandinavian cooperation like MGT that owns Viasat, that holds the rights in Sweden I believe.

Therefore there have been a lot of reactions from fans saying that the price for the TV package are getting too high, and are blaming the distributor. Fans are starting to sign petitions, organize boycotts etc. But everything to blame here is the deal the english FA made with the UK distributors.

Fans are complaining about higher prices for less matches, since the Premier League now only send one live match no matter what day it is. (so for example if there are 2 matches simultaneously on a sunday, only one match gets viewed live.) Also the fact that they spread out the matches on every day of the weekend, friday, saturday, sunday and monday matches.

I can understand the reactions and see why they are frustrated, but I feel they are being stupid to blame national distributors in their contries for the price changes and scheduling. If they want to blame anyone they should blame the FA, and sign petitions against them.

I looked up the prices for the Norwegian viewer, and we have to pay £42 every month to watch the Premier League this season.

How much does it cost in your country? And how do you find the price and availability changes this season?

Sky Sports is £47.50 per month

BT Sport is £5 per month.

That means it's £52.50*12 = £630 to watch some-but-not-all EPL games in the UK.

Cheapest season ticket at OT is £500.

Didn't it get more expensive this season? Sounds like a dream if this is true.

No, another company bought the PL rights for the next 3 years and this provider comes with all that I named above. I am happy because the previous provider only had NFL, Bundesliga and eSports. So I keep paying the same while getting more sports which I actually like.

Just to be clear , this 15€ is added to the tv cable subscription that you already have to pay for. It's 15€ for the extra sport channels which include the PL. in total with the cheapest cable package, it's about 45€ + 15€ = 60,- /month

About 10 pounds a month iirc.

I live in Israel, and also get the Bundesliga, the Serie A, the Europa league (Crucial this year) and a few other leagues on the same package.

Not bad at all I think.

Australia: Optus has exclusive rights. Depends what package you buy. I think the cheapest is to go on a postpaid mobile plan $30/month. Then you can get a mini fetch TV box for +$5/month. Personally I had my home phone and unlimited internet with them so the Optus Sport is included for me, paying about $95/month.

Optus footage and content has been great. I'm still not sure if the extra content is Optus exclusive or not.

In Poland cheapest package that includes Canal+ channels that have rights for Premier League, Champions League, Europa League, Spanish domestic cups and Polish Ekstraklasa is 100 zł per month. That's about 20 pounds per month. That also includes Eurosport which aires Bundesliga, MLS and some more Ekstraklasa.

For 30 zł (~6 pounds) more you also get Eleven Sports which has even more football, including La Liga, domestic English cups, Serie A, Ligue 1, lower English leagues etc. At least that's NC+ which is digital satellite platform. Cable TV companies offer differs.

I don't think prices changed for us recently.
