The future of sports streaming is here!
The reliance of traditional media on live sports is being disrupted. Since live sports returned to our screens, evidence suggests that sports lovers have used the opportunity to find new ways to watch.
According to our data, 39% of live sports viewers now watch their teams via ad-supported Connected TV and streaming platforms, such as Hulu, Sling TV, Fubo.tv, YouTube, and similar services. This represents exponential growth of over 200% year-over-year!
Sports streaming goes mainstream
Streaming channels are poised to disrupt the way live sports business has been done. For instance, Amazon Prime Video, ESPN+, NBCUniversal’s Peacock and DAZN, are all reported to be interested in bidding for the NFL’s Sunday Ticket when it goes up for auction after the 2021 season. This may be the end of cable TV!
Meanwhile, NBCU’s ad-supported Peacock picked up top-flight matches from the English Premier League, with additional subscription fees. This year, the streaming service will reach a large audience with coverage of the Tokyo Olympics, including the opening and closing ceremonies.
