GCN Plus going away

Streaming sport just gets worse and worse. This was the only streaming service I would actually recommend to other people, and of course big corporates pull the rug to force us onto their shitty expensive platforms.

Good thing I didn't switch from Eurosport, then.

I think that's where I'll go when the season starts again, but worth noting that GCN+ was 1/3 of the cost and has content that eurosport doesn't.

Yes. For a while I had some chinese IP TV to be able to follow coupe de france races and the races not on discovery+/eurosport, but seems to be difficult to find now.

Just as I was planning to subscribe in 2024. Yep streaming is getting worse.

Terrible news. Such an amazing service. Been a subscriber from day 1. Now to keep the same racing coverage I have to pay twice as much for service that has load of crap I'm not interested in, oh and have to watch ads as well. FFS!
