@Stargazer they do, but still better than nothing?
I transferred some video stuff form when I was in the UK 99-05 to DVD last year, quality is poor anyway, without looking at possible degradation.

The Commerce Commission has granted clearance for NEP Broadcast Services New Zealand Limited to acquire from Sky Network Television Limited the assets of its outside broadcasting business, Outside Broadcasting Limited. Chair Anna Rawlings said the Commission is satisfied that the acquisition is unlikely to substantially lessen competition in any New Zealand market. Central to the Commission’s decision was its assessment of what Sky would otherwise do if the proposed acquisition did not proceed. In particular, the Commission considered and tested whether there was a realistic prospect that OSB would otherwise continue providing outside broadcasting services in competition with NEP. “After careful consideration, the Commission is satisfied that there is no realistic prospect that OSB would continue to provide outside broadcasting services if the proposed transaction did not proceed. Rather, we consider it would seek to outsource those services to a third party, most likely NEP” Ms Rawlings said. “We are also satisfied that, absent the sale to NEP, OSB’s assets were unlikely to be sold to another outside broadcasting provider and used to compete against NEP. Given this, we are satisfied that the proposed transaction is unlikely to substantially lessen competition when compared to the likely scenario if the transaction did not proceed.”

Finally woken up.
I'll tell you one thing that would get me going to more live games Tex. Work with the officials and get rid of the overlong breaks between plays. The long scrum sets, the constant water boys. All encouraged so there is room for the TV 'experts' to 'add value' to the broadcast.
All momentum for the crowd gets lost and worse still encourages some fucktard to play 'Hey Baby'. -

All momentum for the crowd gets lost and worse still encourages some fucktard to play 'Hey Baby'.The breaks in play piss me off watching on TB .
Only game I've been to in QLD in over 10 years was the test at Suncorp last year, and the constant music in the breaks just pissed me off.

What’s happening?
The price of Sky Sport is increasing from 1 May 2022 by $3 per month.
What will be the new price of Sky Sport?
The new price of Sky sport from 1 May 2022 will be $34.99 per month, effective from your May bill.
Why is the Sky Sport package price increasing?
Our goal at Sky is to deliver to our customers the sport they love, right across the year.
The rising cost of accessing key sporting events and competitions has meant that we’ve needed to invest more than ever to ensure we remain New Zealand’s home of sport.
We continue to make substantial investments in local and global sport, through event rights fees, production of live games and highlights, team and event sponsorships and partnerships with sport associations.

@stargazer Let's hope NZ cricket is one of their goals.
Six years with Spark, I believe starting 2020/21 season

Might get back to bite David White in the bum if Spark Sport folds before the contract period expires and the NZCC has to pay Sky to have their cricket televised.
