  1. Philo is bundling HBO Max and Discovery+ with its core plan, but get ready to pay more. Because who doesn't love paying more for things they didn't explicitly ask for?

    Is this the future of streaming – endless bundles and ever-climbing prices?

  2. I recently cancelled my Discovery+ subscription after they increased their monthly subscription fee from £6.99 to £30.99 (yes, you read that right).

    They have sent me an email me asking me to fill in a survey to let them know why I cancelled.

    But the link to the survey didn't work.

    Oh no! How are they ever going to figure out why people are cancelling their subscriptions now! I guess it will forever have to remain a mystery to them.

  3. So annoyed with Discovery+… So I use to pay £39.99 a year for Eurosport, and then they joined Discovery+ and it changed to £6.99 a month (110% increase), and now they want to join TNT sports and Eurosport. To continue they insist I move to their premium £30.99 plan a month!!! 830% increase over my original Eurosport plan! What a joke

  4. OK, I may not be the most price-sensitive consumer, but if Discovery Plus want to increase my subscription from £6.99/month to £30.99/month, then sorry, that's completely taking the piss.

    Subscription cancelled.

    So, anyone know if there is a way to watch cycling races (Tour de France etc) on the telly in the UK that doesn't cost silly money?

  5. Bad news about watching live cycling in the UK.

    It is about to get a lot more expensive.

    £6.99 a month currently for the package that includes Eurosport via Discovery Plus is going up to £30.99 a month.

  6. TV 📺 coverage summary of some of the #CycloCross national championships this weekend. Includes streaming options.

    UK 🇬🇧 - none

    Netherlands 🇳🇱 - none

    Belgium 🇧🇪 - live on #Sporza and #VRT1

    France 🇫🇷 - live on #HBOMax, #DiscoveryPlus (subscribers in France only?) and online here veloplustv.com/directs

    Races are typically spread across both days.

  7. @burner Thanks for the information. It seems the #DiscoveryPlus packages are different in the UK. We have no yearly subscription option that includes #Eurosport. Just monthly subscriptions starting at £6.99 per month. No options among any of them relating to commercials.

  8. Hi #Cycling Mastodon friends. I am just about to subscribe to #DiscoveryPlus for the #CycloCross season. I have not found any special offers or discounts. Do you know of any?

    Thanks in advance!

  9. Finally coughed up the #DiscoveryPlus subscription to get the extra live coverage (BBC only has rights for 1 TV, 1 stream). Amazing that #Surfing🏄 is is an #Olympic event this time (They're in Tahiti for that)

  10. Think I'll see what happens at 4pm with the street final gold medal event and how easily I can get that on the BBC and then consider one month of Discovery+ for £4 _just_ to get some reliable coverage.

    Which is a shame. Because the Beeb is categorically the best broadcaster bar none. Quality shows. No adverts. Generally not arsehole presenters. Intelligent documentaries and comedy. The lot.

  11. Anyone in the UK (or maybe Europe) got #DiscoveryPlus? Does it let you do catch-up?

    The main listings are all "Live now" and "Upcoming". But the pages for the individual sports _might_ have catchup. I just checked shooting and I *think* that's the event from earlier today.

    Just trying to work out if it's worth £4 to get more coverage of interesting events (and then cancel), since #BBC coverage is hamstrung. But I won't be watching live.

  12. BOOOOO! Looks like the Beeb don't have mountain biking, BMX or climbing. They're only on Discovery+ 😒

  13. Nope. No #FormulaE catch-up on #Quest on #DiscoveryPlus. The only shows they added to Quest catch-up from yesterday were two episodes of "Shed and Buried".

    Looks like I'm waiting until next weekend to see how the London e-Prix went, when it's free on the Formula E website 😕
