Protect the rich.

[Iron Age]

I don’t pay to watch the Premier League, I don’t bother much with Match of the Day. I just find this protection of it’s purveyors a bit hard to swallow.

The PL are going to be furious when they find out one of their member’s owners was pirating PL TV rights for years…

They’ve priced many out and wonder why there’s a market for illegal streaming? Then go after them? Doesn’t sit right.

The result of selling out back in 1992/93 no sympathy for any of em.

I do pay for sky sports for F1 so works out expensive as I don’t watch it a lot so can say hey deserve to be jailed for stealing ,these programmes cost a fortune to make even if its the Murdoch doing it

Didn’t Murdock sell all his shares to Comcast in 2018

[IronIronIron]

It was illegal. They got caught. They deserve to be punished.

[Siderite]

I agree, but the punishment for some involved seems large compared to other crimes.

Ringleader got 11 years ?. There’s been numerous cases when violent rapists and prolific paedophiles get less jail time.

🤣 no denying, that’s funny

£35 for the year I’m paying for all sports including PPV’s. Still always paid a tenner for Ifollow/national league TV for lower league clubs when Scunny were playing though

No way I’m going to paying £80-100 per month to watch everything again.

The genie is out of the bottle.

It’s all about the money in all walks of life always as been and always will be, always going to be tougher sentences for robbing like it or not.

[64]

If I was a tory I’d be saying I want a service while wanting to pay next to nothing(ie taxes) while accusing poorer people of wanting and getting something for nothing

[Awaywego]

And what’s wrong with saying that 64 the poor don’t pay taxes and get help from the state and that’s how it should be, doesn’t mean them that do, can’t say they want to pay as little as possible.
