With this news, Amazon is definitely going to get in on the upcoming CDN rights. This is interesting, because you know Bell will want to get national games back too. So there will probably be a Bell/Rogers/Amazon split. But when it comes to streaming out of market games, who's going to get those?
Bell seems to be bulking up their TSN+ package, and I figure they would want to grab NHL Live from Rogers. But Amazon is prime for streaming. So they got a strong contender for that now. Or maybe someone like Google will come in to take that since they're also in the game too.
Streaming is the main grab these days, so I'm intrigued to see how that plays out.
