BT sports and UFC (Pay Per View)

[river4ever]

Prices going up around TV nowadays. Internet, TV, phone line.
Those that think BT sports was not as greedy as sky tv.
Think again!!!

UFC on tonight and usually within your payment sub.
But now they want mugs to pay twice like sly/matchroom fees.
£20 to view it!!!

Really sad times nowadays.
Then they wonder why piracy is a problem. Maybe greedy TV networks should work with paying folks, rather than roast us twice.

UFC is likely because its the biggest fight of the year. It's some special event in the US, and the biggest PPV around. I've been watching the UFC since UFC3. I used to buy the DVDs to watch when they came out, as it wasn't popular over here at the time, and you could only get it on DVD. I remember watching Royce Gracie fighting in a Gi, and Ken Shamrock being a shoot fighter. There were only 2 rules, and no weight classes, you basically got in with whoever!

As with anything, companies get greedy, they lure you in with promises of free stuff, then wham you with fees. This is why piracy is such a big thing as well. I appreciate they have to make money, and pay the fighters etc, but it doesn't need the level of opulence that they show.

Did JBJ win I wonder? Likely the best MMA fighter ever.
