Sky and Virgin viewers who have been getting their sport free on Eurosport will have to pay the £30 premium from that date to continue watching their sports. With regard to snooker, the effect may be minimal this season, as the Welsh Open and most of the World Open will be free to watch as usual, all 3 players' series tournaments will hopefully be on ITV, and the World Championship will be on the BBC. However they will have to pay the 30 quid to watch the final of the World Open.

Discovery Plus has already implemented the change, so if I don't want to watch the match Eurosport has selected, I'll have to pay the 30 quid to watch an alternative match live on Discovery Plus.

I was a TNT Sport subscriber last season when West Ham were in Europe, but not this season. TNT Sport has announced it will be screening the West Ham v Leicester game on Feb 27th, so it may be worth it for me to subscribe to TNT Sport for a month from Feb 27th if they announce another West Ham fixture before March 27th. However, it's still a moneygrab, and more than 3 times the cost of an Amazon Prime subscription for a month.
