If that’s true that’s mental for a Europe-wide channel.

I guess it’s because of other channels having local programmes.

Not got Eurosport on your TV package?


I think we can discern that his statement directly implied he doesn’t.

It could be a form of protest at your predicament.

My Eurosport subscription automatically renewed and it still seems to be working. I'll find out for sure tomorrow though if it will allow me to watch the World championship qualifiers.

I switched to D+. There's tons of other stuff on there, but I never use it to watch anything but snooker. <laugh>

A Discovery + icon has appeared in the media section of my PS4 menu. Must be a pretty recent addition to the PS4 app library. This solves my problem of watching it through Amazon Prime and its labyrinth of menus - assuming the UI is in a more native form and easier to navigate. I’ll sign up soon and find out.

Could be helpful for anyone in a similar boat, so thought I’d make a note here <ok>

Yeah, watching it on Prime sucks.

Oh really.

Might have to check that. My renews in February, I think.

If you have to renew it every month, that might dissuade me for paying for it, for months when nothing is on.

That's what I've started doing. I'm not sure if I'll even renew it until next season now, most of the tournaments left are on ITV or BBC.

Not an option when you're not in the UK unfortunately. I'll leave mine going until May.

I do wonder if they're gearing up for a price increase next year, that's why they don't want people to lock in the current price for another year.

Oh I remember from when I used to live in Aus a few years back. I think the only legal way to get it back then was through Foxtel. Had to resort to dodgy streams and VPNs. Its good you can get disco+ there now.
