Not surprised. Guess we won't be seeing "BT Warner Bros Discovery Eurosport ESPN" then.
Still not a huge fan of this deal as a viewer so we'll see how it plays out. I guess like BT used BT Sport to sell broadband Discovery will be hoping it can proper up their fledgling streaming service which I think for most people is that one subscription too many. Feels like the ethos of what Eurosport was though prior to Discovery taking it over is slowly but surely being eroded.
