I blame this on Donald Trump too. We have been watching professional cycling on the Discovery+ app for £6.99/month. Now it's going to cost £30.99/month. My love for MVDP isn't that strong.

Yes I am so so so down. Utterly ridiculous how the visionary GCN+, which truly democratised and globalised affordable bike race viewing, has just been dismantled as a pawn in corporate greed. Disgusting and so so sad.
Honestly, I don't see any or at least not any significant problem with making wasting time to watch people participate in pointless exercise competitions more expensive. Media should also report on sports less and more on things that actually matter and society should spend less resources on sports.
Agreed. US capitalism TV style. No way am I paying it. I’ll watch YouTube highlights only. I’ve cancelled Discovery Plus upon hearing the news. The subscription model has come as some as a creeping cost per month regret.
and this year is the last for the Tour de France on ITV for free, the one race I meticulously watch every year without fail will be unavailable to me. 😢
yeah, all sports are so desperate for cash at any price they don't care about what happens when half the next generation of fans never see it. TNT is too much for me to justify for rugby watching, esp when most of the monthly fee is going to sports like football.
