Illegal PL streaming - 11 years in prison for "gang" leader.

So to get the max amount of NFL coverage only costs $5.99 a month? Don’t you need a Fox subscription too?
Just trying to compare cost of fullest NFL coverage in the US vs fullest footy coverage over here.

OK I not up on NFL at all as I don't watch it, although I've been dragged out to bars when Tampa Bay Bucs are on!
I just googled "watching NFL in the US on TV" and this link came up.
Gives you (if you scroll down) every game and what station it is on.

Yes, you're right (as already mentioned I don’t pay for illegal streams, so didn't feel the need to address it in my earlier reply)
But I'd imagine it's the police and trading standards responsible for imprisoning them.

And the blokes themselves (including the nonce) for setting up their scheme .

Why? Nobody subscribes then they’re out of business. They’re not paying tax either. And one of them had child porn on his computer.

Still, cheap sport.

If you're not going to read past the first line of my comment, why bother replying at all?

I get 180 NBA games included with NowTV, including all the play-off games and most box office regular season match ups. I'm a pretty casual viewer and most games are on at unwatchable times anyway (2-5am).

Why would anyone pay £180 for 1300 games of basketball 90% of which no one wants to watch? That's not a better deal.

Ultimately people have spoken and however you want to spin it, the majority of people think it's to expensive. I'm in the 30s demographic and I don't have a single close mate subscribed to any sports packages.

But they all pay for Netflix, prime and Spotify.

Your friends aren't the majority, if you were Sky would be going bust.

Majority of what population.

Sky have about 6.5 million Sky Sports users. Make that an average household and you are looking about 26 million, so by definition it is the minority.

Sky have a shrinking customer base and a tired delivery model. Why else would they try to start flogging a TV rental service of a "smarter" (read clunkier) TV in Sky Glass and lock people into a commitment that makes them more likely to stay?

It's very much outdated and comes from a time when a live game on TV was very much a novelty and would draw big audience figures
Football on TV is now so saturated that showing a game at 3pm on a Saturday would IMO have a minimal affect on lower league gates

Do criminals usually pay tax on their illegal income? They would have to commit money laundering offences in order to do that.

So anyone who has gone to a Who or Lost Prophets concert should hang their head in shame?

Not sure it's that relevant unless said child porn was included in the service.

Again I need to stress. The police had NO involvement in this. The Premier League paid the Trading Standards Dept. to investigate it, the PL paid for the PRIVATE prosecution.
This was a very rich company protecting their product.
That said, I don't have a problem with that, the problem I have is the sentence of 11 years. Drug dealers, major traffickers, don't get that. Armed robbers don't and as stated before the average sentence for manslaughter is 6 years. This whole farce is to show people who is in charge. It is a disgrace.

What's child porn got to do with your argument that if I watch it I am the reason they committed a crime ?
 
I just watched a documentary about a guy who got a total of 12 years for sexually assaulting 82 corpses.

Puts it into perspective.

Are you breaking the law though? Thats the question I'd like answered.

If it is out there on the internet and people can access it then what exactly are they doing wrong...? Those that watch it i mean as opposed to those who provide it.
