I don't condone it but if you're in the UK and you want to legally watch every premier league game last season...

Sky Sports - £35/month

TNT Sports - £32/month

Amazon Prime - £9/month

And then in the UK there is a legal peculiarity whereby 3pm Saturday games are illegal to broadcast on television, so you don't even get that slot. It's the most common slot with about a third of the weekends games.

v.s. Paying someone on discord £8/month for all the games

Amazon Prime introduced ads. The ads will dissapear for some extra money. It made me instantly hate it.

Similarly, if you wanted to watch every single NFL game:

NFL Sunday Ticket ($150-204/season) - Out-of-market Sunday afternoon games

Amazon Prime Video ($9/month) - Thursday Night Football

Peacock Premium ($10.99/month) - Some exclusive games on NBC

ESPN Unlimited ($29.99/month) - Monday Night Football on ESPN/ABC

Fox One ($19.99/month) - Fox Sunday games

Paramount+ ($7.99/month) - CBS Sunday games

Netflix - Two Christmas Day games

I'm sure Sky is a lot more than £35, is that number just for the Sports package on top of the basic sub?

p.s. great username

Yes - that's for Sky Sports.

You can often get a deal if you threaten to cancel, go through with it, and then wait for a retentions offer, but since Sky was acquired by Comcast that's happening less and less, especially for the superior Sky Q satellite service - you can get great deals on their Sky Stream service, but it's plagued with issues, and you no longer have the ability to time shift by having the main box record directly off the satellite feed.

You also can't skip ads unless you pay them, versus the ability to pause, fast forward etc. on the Satellite service.
