The NBC Sports app is now available to download on most, if not all Android TV devices. Previously, the NBC Sports app was resigned to mobile devices although a new version of the app recently surfaced on the Google Play Store. Up until now, that new version has remained without the option to install on Android TV products, even though the new listing came with what clearly looked to be TV interface screenshots. That has now changed with the app having fully becoming available along with the option to install on your favorite Android TV device. At present, the listing is showing support for all major Android TV units, including the NVIDIA SHIELD TV, Xiaomi Mi Box, as well as TVs that are powered by Android TV. This will be a big win for sports fan as although they can access live and on-demand NBC and NBCSN content through a live TV provider’s app on Android TV devices, the dedicated app is a different proposition altogether. The app not only provides a central place to find all the NBC-related sports content but it also offers more content than you’ll find going through a traditional live TV provider’s app. This also goes for greater access to more live TV content in general. Possibly more importantly, the app also populates NBC Sports Gold content as well. NBC Sports Gold is different to typical NBC content as it requires a standalone subscription. Therefore although you can access NBC content through your live TV service on Android TV, that’s not the same as accessing NBC Sports Gold content. In addition to the NBC-branded channels, you’ll also get access to the Golf Channel , Olympic Channel , and Telemundo Deportes from within the new app. This app will essentially now service all of your NBC sports needs without device owners having to switch from app to app. It is a true one-stop solution for the network’s sports content and that’s big news for sports fans in the U.S. Not only is the one-stop nature interesting as it offers fuller access to all the sports content, but equally, the same app caters to different subscribers. As while you do need a subscription to a live TV service to access NBC and NBCSN, you don’t need one for NBC Sports Gold. That’s something you can buy as a standalone service, and even just purchase passes for specific sports pass – such as the Ice skating pass which lets you tune into the 2019 World Figure Skating Championships that’s currently underway in Japan. If you don’t subscribe to the standalone NBC Sports Gold service, or any of its related passes, nor have access to NBC content in general, then this app is unlikely to hold much weight for you. There is some content that’s accessible without the need for either an NBC or Sports Gold subscription, but it is largely short clip-based highlights. To download the NBC Sports app, either search for it in the Google Play Store app on the Android TV device or send the app directly to your device from the web version of the Google Play Store (link).

Fortunately, there are more options than ever for streaming National Football League games to your TV, laptop, or phone. With the right streaming services, you can watch Sunday afternoon games on CBS and Fox, Sunday Night Football on NBC, Monday Night Football on ESPN, and Thursday Night Football, which this year is spread out across Fox, Amazon Prime/Twitch, and the NFL Network. And let’s not forget the Saturday games scheduled for Dec. 19 and 26, and the playoffs leading up to Super Bowl LV on Feb. 7, 2021, in Tampa, Fla. (CR shows you how to watch the Super Bowl without cable.) You might not have to do much to watch these games. If you’re using a cable-replacement streaming service, you may already have access to a decent number of games. Before we profile the various options, there are a few things to note. Some live local channels aren’t available on all cable-replacement streaming services in all markets. You’ll need these channels to watch games in your area, so review the channel lineups before subscribing to a service such as AT&T TV Now or YouTube TV.

Penney Eric Breisach General Counsel WaveDivision Holdings, LLC Breisach Cordell PLLC 401 Parkplace Center, Suite 500 5335 Wisconsin Ave., NW, Suite 440 Kirkland, WA 98033 Washington, DC 20015 (425) 896-1891 (202) 751-2701 Its Attorneys Date: December 19, 2017 SUMMARY This Petition is about the conduct of three Comcast-owned regional sports networks whose deliberate actions undermined the fundamental structure of their distribution agreements with a cable operator and then, when the operator could no longer meet minimum contractual penetration percentages, presented the operator with a Hobson’s choice: (1) restructure its services through a forced bundling scheme in a way that would make them commercially and competitively unviable; or (2) face shut-off of the services four days later. These efforts to hinder significantly or prevent the operator from providing this programming are not only prohibited by 47 U.S.C. 548(b), but are particularly egregious because they are taken against the only terrestrial competitor to Comcast’s cable systems in the areas served by the cable operator. It was only after the Comcast regional sports networks extracted a payment of approximately $2.4 million and a promise to pay even more on an ongoing basis – amounts far in excess of what would have been required by the distribution agreements, was the imminent threat to withhold the services withdrawn.

  • The Full 100+ Page Pdf!
    2014 was a unique year for pro-wrestling, one that will undoubtedly be viewed as historically significant in years to follow. Whether it is to be reflected upon positively or negatively is not only highly subjective, but also context-specific with major occurrences transpiring across the pro-wrestling world over the last 12 months, each with its own strong, and at times far reaching, consequences. The WWE launched its much awaited Network, New Japan continued to expand, CMLL booked lucha's biggest match in well over a decade, culminating in the country's first million dollar gate, TNA teetered more precariously on the brink of death than perhaps ever before, Daniel Bryan won the WWE's top prize, Dragon Gate and DDT saw continued success before their loyal niche audiences, Alberto Del Rio and CM Punk departed the WWE with one ending up in the most unexpected of places, a developing and divergent style produced some of the best indie matches of the year, the European scene flourished, the Shield disbanded, Batista returned, Daniel Bryan relinquished his championship, and the Undertaker's streak came to an unexpected and dramatic end. These are but some of the happenings, which made 2014 the year that it was, and it is in this year-book that we look to not only recap all of these events and more, but also contemplate their relevance to the greater pro-wrestling landscape, both for 2015 and beyond. It should be stated that this year-book was inspired by the DKP Annuals that were released in 2011 and 2012, in fact, it was the absence of a 2013 annual that inspired us to produce a year-book for 2014.

  • September 2019 Key Consumer Tech Trends for Entertainment
    SEPTEMBER 2019 KEY CONSUMER TECH TRENDS FOR ENTERTAINMENT INTRODUCTION The Consumer Technology Association (CTA)®, producers of CES®, recently updated its semi-annual U.S. Consumer Sales and Forecasts Report, projecting trends into 2020. Variety Intelligence Platform, a new division of Variety, has highlighted key areas within the report that we think are the most relevant for the entertainment industry as it gears up to enter the next decade. Entertainment finds itself in the midst of digital disruption, which will be amplified once 5G internet begins to hit the mainstream. The trends included here illustrate shifts that are not only changing the consumption of entertainment, but also creating new distribution channels and devices to engage with content. Older systems are being replaced by younger ones more suited to the new environment, but some previous generation systems are still surviving, even if on the decline. Others, like video games, have reinvented themselves and are generating more revenue than ever before. With many elements of the industry changing, one essential thing remains the same: people haven’t stopped wanting to be entertained. This report highlights the main ways this will continue. Subscription streaming It is also important to note that there are several video services continue Streaming Video on Demand (SVOD) sports 1 to grow. platforms out there for consumers to purchase. DAZN, ESPN+ and B/R Live all launched in 2018, Video continues to comprise over two-thirds of the total revenue for subscription streaming services joining NBC Sports Gold, among others. As networks (music accounts for just under a third) and are increasingly migrate content onto their SVOD predicted to keep increasing at a strong pace for services, spending will increase as fans maintain 2020, up 24% to $21.9 billion.

  • OTT – Has It Found and Unlocked Its Undoubted Potential?
    December 1, 2020 OTT – Has It Found and Unlocked Its Undoubted Potential? Sports over-the-top (OTT) provisions have seen to be a profitable area to be a player in with OTT media revenue expected to reach 158.84 billion dollars by 2024, more than double the $67.8 billion generated in 2018. OTT growth is second only to virtual reality in the media industry. However, it is not without its challenges - whilst there are many opportunities arising in this arena, especially due to the current pandemic and the increase in content consumption this has led to, there is the overhanging question of whether this market is a positive one to be part of or if it is the offering too broad with too many subscriptions for the consumer? Will this lead to a consolidation in the market much like the cable industry of yesteryear? OTT platforms have shown positive traits, Caelum Shove said as an example on Medium ‘NBC Sports Gold… focus on functional benefits relevant only to niche sports fans. Not only is this a messaging shift, but also an organizational one. In many cases, subscription sports streaming is the first time these networks have moved into the direct-to-consumer world, forcing the firms to shift priorities, hire new departments, and build new organizational muscles’. This suggests that OTT platforms are not only delivering that extra content for fans but are also providing a boost to the economy through new jobs and revenue streams. Despite this, the proliferation of OTT platforms creates a sports battle for audiences with lead runners being the likes of Amazon Prime Video, Netflix and Hulu, DAZN, NBC, Discovery and Eleven Sports.
