| | Re: DAZN - Sports Streaming | Quote: | |  | | | I couldn't find any way to change commentary to English on any of the games I watched over the weekend. I don't think DAZN has that feature. | | | | |
I also tried and the commentaries were only in German |

| | Re: DAZN - Sports Streaming | Quote: |  | | | Another stupid question - If I don't want any extra hardware, is there any online subscription for Sky DE (or UK for that matter, I guess) that I could use? | | | | |
I have Salt and they offer the option to subscribe to Sky Sport for 19.90 per month. https://fiber.salt.ch/en/sky-package-en/
And it looks like there are several options that don't require hardware, e.g. Smart TV https://sport.sky.ch/de/so-gehts | This user would like to thank hof86 for this useful post: | |

Well I've cancelled my DAZN and will open a Sky account. I know I said I would never subscribe to Sky but.... For 19.99 CHF/month they are now offering Internet subscription based access, like DAZN; pay monthly, no commitment, independent of the ISP (Swisscom, Salt, etc).
They will also show the large majority of the EPL games live, about 3/4 I think.
It's basically a no-brainer for me. I would have stuck with DAZN as I had used them since they had the rights to the EPL - but that's history now.

I am also ideologically opposed to paying for Sky, but hey, they've ed the world as badly as they can now, it can't get worse...right?!

Years back it was the equivalent of the GDP of a small nation. Now it's 20 CHF/month with no-commitment.
Their EPL commentary is only in German apparently, but there is an option to turn off the commentary (see screenshot) and hear the roar of the stadium - which is pretty cool. https://support.sky.ch/hc/en-us/arti...h-App-version- |

Hope they can do the same for the football.

After losing PL rights, DAZN are still charging the same price!

So, the season started. Does Sky offer the English track for commentary or just German?

Just discovered that sky.ch is now showing EPL games with English commentary.
I rejoiced for a few minutes, until I discovered that it is actually… uh.. American.

I imagine there's probably a licensing issue with the UK commentators. I often just watch it in German as they seem to have a more neutral, fact based take on things.
Also they don't mind mentioning what a travesty PL refereeing is.
