So what are they going to charge.?

I don't have Amazon, don't intend getting it.

Far too many different services having different sports.
Money only goes so far.

There are not many ways in which Australia can learn from England in cricket however England’s experience since 2005 (indeed since 1999 for the world cup) should have shown them that this is not a good idea.

We've had this bullshit for 18 years now. About time you actually learn how it feels

Thinking purely about World Cups, the profile of the cricket edition was nigh on subterranean this time round while the free-to-air rugby Union version was hard for even an agnostic member of the public to miss.

Yeah when i was a kid in the nineties cricket had a pretty high profile despite us being shite. Then the 2005 Ashes happened which caused a massive spike in interest in itself. Then what? The game goes behind a big paywall, and for a long time too. Most of the interest that had been gathered withered almost instantaneously. **** them

Get IPTV if it's legal in your country. Different counties have different rules. Legal in mine.

I pay about 50USD a year. I mostly just use it for streaming, so I'm not sure how many channels it has, but a lot. I think their ads say 20000+ (which is definitely nonsense, cos there aren't that many channels in the world, but I think it probably has most of them). It probably has all the cricket channels- haven't checked fully but have seen about 8.

Streaming is pretty good (not perfect) for mainstream stuff, but if you want something like a B tier AUS TV show, it almost certainly isn't there.
