As of next season. Part of the transition into Warner Bros Discovery group, which also owns Eurosport (which will also eventually be branded TNT). Looks like we might be left with two big players at the end of this for Sports, in the UK at least.

That's probably a good thing to be honest.

Eurosport comes free with Sky and many other providers around Europe, BT Sport is not. Be interesting to see how they combine them in the future.

BT Sport was intended to stop Sky cornering the Broadband market by bundling it with its Sports packages..I am guessing that moment has passed.

I signed up for discoveryplus (before I realised I could get just the cycling on GCN) and while it's more than Eurosport was, it's not disastrous - 60 quid a year and it is basically Eurosport - plus a load ot truly awful regular TV.

If they insert some TNT into Austin Healey, then I'm all for it.

How many different streams is it possible to sign up for? If you want to make sure you miss nothing? Must be dozens?
