There are two elements to this.
One is price. People who stream games that are shown on sky, bt etc are doing so as they do not want to pay for that service. In my opinion that is wrong, but each to their own.
The second element is access to games that are not broadcast on UK TV, such as our away games. This, I fully understand as people do not even have the option to pay for it if they wish to do. However, there are larger factors to take into consideration such as the impact on attendances that open streaming may cause.
I would happily pay for a Sunderland season ticket home and away (having kids mean cant get to many games)....So instead of getting some money from me, the club/Sky get nowt, sounds a cracking business model.
