Reshaping sports production for the modern era of OTT
For sports organizations and broadcasters considering a more sustainable broadcast model in a post-COVID world, they’d be wise to explore a few new ideas.blog.ligrsystems.com

Want to produce you're own show? Have to pay Eddie.
It's nightmare stuff.
It's not so much the cost of buying tv rights that will hinder any future A League deal, more the cost of production of games...
When Stan buy tv rights to say the Champions League they know that once they've signed the deal that will include the cost of production too.
All they do is pick up the world feed and stream it on their platform. Unless they're doing a studio show of course but I've noticed on CL nights they just take the UK TNT Sports studio show pre and post game, rather than Bozza and Fozza talkin' shyte....
With the A League they'd have to produce the entire operation. That can be just as expensive as buying the tv rights when you add it all up.
7 years ago Foxtel produced the A-League and paid $350m over 4 years until Covid came around and screwed us out of the deal a year later. With the cost of living and inflation going up we are yet to see the likes of that kinds of money with production at all since.CH10 and the APL share production costs for the AL and they outsource it. There is no reason why any other potential bidders can't do the same.

You thinking YouTube then?To be honest, I'd like to see them go away from legacy broadcast TV all together. Doesn't matter which channel gets a game or two a week, the numbers simply are not going to rise. The eyeballs simply are not there and they are not going to suddenly appear. In general, people under 40 do not watch broadcast TV and with each generation that number grows. Even the boomers have drifted towards streaming services because the programming on legacy TV is so woeful. Football needs to look to the future not the past.
YouTube is great for the end user, great for accessibility, great for discoverability but not so great from a monetization point of view. The YouTube business model isn't really suited for live sports. It is interesting that they don't implement a specific tier and service for live sports. There would have to be a way that it makes sense for everyone.You thinking YouTube then?
Wouldn't be surprised if they drop the TV deal down to $100m over 6 years.
