EUROSPORT has long been a go-to TV channel for followers of a variety of relatively niche, less mainstream sports, but from February 28 it will cease broadcasting in Britain.
The channel’s programming is set to become part of TNT Sports as Warner Bros Discovery (WBD), the owner of both channels, wants to bring all of its sports broadcasting under the TNT banner in Britain. This will lead to significant increases in subscription costs for viewers who want to continue watching these sports.
Snooker fans are among those most affected by the move. Eurosport had become the go-to broadcaster of the sport, while its Discovery+ streaming service offered even more in-depth, comprehensive coverage, including qualifying rounds and peripheral tables at events for an extra £6.99 per month.
