  • World Snooker live streaming Geoblocked!

    Apparently I can`t watch the current PTC in Germany due to rights restrictions!!!! as its geoblocked

    I thought World Snooker had the rights and that's why I paid so I could watch it!!!!

          they write in the pdf that you can watch it only if you dont have opportunity to watch it on tv and this ptc is on eurosport so only countries which do not have eurosport can watch it if i understand that correctly

            There is a PDF flying about somewhere with a list of which events you can watch from each territory, I will try to find it.

            I also sent my comments in on this subject but regarding the reoccurring payments, if you are in The UK then reoccurring payment is not cost effective it would be better to give the viewers a buy monthly option.

                They can not due to existing contracts.

                  its quite easy really it costs more in territories that has no Eurosport.

                  The Contract to show streamed Eurosport Coverage is with Eurosport Player also from now on British Eurosport will not be showing BBC Events such as The World Championship.
