While I agree, lmao. They're already jacking up the price of Prime and it's already proven successful as a separate package.

On one hand, I agree its stupid. On the other, its not like everything else isn't behind a paywall already (and yes this is a bad attitude but whatever).

Not only that but soccer fans are exactly the kind of fans that would pay extra to watch the sport.

It’s a great way to monetize existing eyeballs. Not a great way to grow the sport. But hey, that’s on the USSF for not placing any demands on the deal.

Indycar had a good start

NBC posted:

The GPSP averaged a Total Audience Delivery (TAD) of 1.429 million viewers on NBC and Peacock, making it not only the most-watched INDYCAR season opener in 11 years (St. Pete, 2011, 1.840 million, ABC), but also the most-watched non-Indy 500 INDYCAR race in 11 years.

Sunday’s GPSP was up 53% compared to the 2021 INDYCAR season opener at Barber (932,000 viewers; April 18) and up 15% vs. last year’s St. Pete race (1.246 million; April 25), both on NBC.

Bolstered by streaming on Peacock, the race delivered an Average Minute Audience (AMA) of 23,800 viewers, the largest streaming audience on record for an INDYCAR race, excluding the Indy 500. The AMA also includes streaming on NBCSports.com and the NBC Sports app via authentication.

Viewership for the race peaked with a TV-only audience of 1.509 million viewers and averaged a household rating of 0.89. TAD is based on data from Nielsen and Adobe Analytics.
