I just cancelled my DAZN subscription. It is absolute garbage. Last week I had games without any commentary, games that were delayed by minutes and then the whole thing stopped streaming while most of the early games were in the 4th quarter.

I can’t believe the NFL would screw over its Canadian fans like this.

If you pay for internet you dont need cable to watch CFL games on TSN or hockey on Sportsnet so I dont see the issue. I dont have or watch tv on cable.

As a DAZN subscriber, I am in the minority who have not had issues with the service. I used to subscribe to NBA League Pass and it had the same lag issues as DAZN. Otherwise, my pictures the majority of the time has been excellent.

What is never covered in any story is the quality of the soccer streams. I have never had a problem with them and they are fantastic. The soccer feeds are where the real value is. For $150/year, to get every La Liga, Ligue 1, and Serie A game as well as any Champions League games on BeIN Sports is fantastic.

I havent dipped into the KHL or any of the other sports but I will continue to be a subscriber unless the price significantly increases or if they lose the rights packages.

And yes, I am aware that people have not enjoyed the same experience as I have.

In reply to Grain. Agreed 100%. I have already cut the cord and just use my parent's sign in for TSN GO but would gladly pay an annual fee to TSN if I was given the choice. I won't go back to normal cable or satellite ever.

TSN needs to get in the game, I’d happily subscribe to an online only option. At the end of this CFL season I am snipping the satellite cord, the only thing I watch on normal TV anymore is sports, and I’m not going to pay the current fees anymore for just that.
