Mediapro is a pretty huge media company in Spain, they manage the broadcast rights to La Liga, Ligue 1, Spainish rights holder for Champions league, they operate BeIN sports, and help produce events for FIBA, FIFA World Cup and Formula 1. They also manage the Golf Channel I think.
Basically they aren't really spending "so much on a singular product," the CanPL is a drop in the bucket in their rights distribution.
