With Amazon now holding the rights to tennis, how long before Amazon or Netflix win the Premiership rights?

If Amazon get hold of it, how long until it's rebranded The Primership?

I think there could be a knock on effect for the Premier League with the increase in number of people streaming games rather than paying for a SKY subscription. The days of silly money in sport could be numbered.

SKY Sports is insanely expensive. So much so that I refuse to pay an extra £50 when £18 on BT Sports and I get lots of football and all UFC. If there is something on SS that I really want, I will do PPV but that doesnt happen often

Can you buy individual prem games on PPV?
I watch football if it's on. Unless it's West Ham then I will definitely watch. But if I am not working and we are playing at home there is a good chance I would be at the game anyway. So really I am paying both SKY and BT to watch the half dozen away games per season.
