BT Sports channels - will be available on Sky TV and they get live MotoGP rights from the BBC

BT has revealed that the three BT Sport channels it is launching shortly will be free for all BT broadband customers.

BT Sport has just signed a five-year carriage deal with MotoGP, starting 2014, in addition to the wide range of Premier League football games, Aviva Premiership rugby, women’s tennis, European football and UFC action that has already been announced for the channels.

BT Sport has won the TV rights for MotoGP from 2014 in a five-year deal, after a decade of coverage on the BBC. BBC coverage for the remainder of this season will be unaffected, with all races and some qualifying sessions available on BBC One and BBC Two.

Marca TV on Spanish TV to close down?

Spain's Marca TV to close down

Spanish sports channel Marca TV is closing down on 1 July, according to vertele.com, as it has become unprofitable for Unidad Editorial to run.

The original intention was to rent it to a major American company, but a recent ruling of the Spanish supreme tribunal has made this solution impossible. Now, the most probable future for the Marca TV signal will be a home shopping channel, probably owned by QVC.

The contract between Unidad Editorial and the channel ends on 30 June and it is unlikely that it will be renewed. Last year Marca TV was on the verge of closing due to lack of finances and was possibly going to be sold to Real Madrid TV, but Unidad Editorial finally decided to bet on the sports channel for one more year. This seems unlikely to happen now, however, as Marca TV has already sold the broadcasting rights of La Liga Adelante to RTVE and the rights to La Liga BBVA to Mediaset.

HBO reported that 4.4 million viewers tuned in to the premier officially, another cool million were downloading the show illegally via torrents. That's a "mind-boggling" amount of downloads for one day, says piracy tracking blog TorrentFreak.

The US and UK were the top sources of torrent download requests, followed closely by Australia.

Game of Thrones was also the most pirated show of 2012, so these premiere figures come as no surprise.
