Cheap

Can you set this up on a tv box or is it online only?

I use it on firestick. It's a streaming service with live and on demand content.

On a side note, they seem to have the Europe rights to the Olympics plus they are merging with WarnerMedia which owns HBO.

Great Bargain

Atlantic Dawn · 21-07-2021 07:22PM

Anyone got an existing monthly Sub they were able to switch to the annual sub?

TheDriver · 21-07-2021 09:03PM

Mine had expired a few days.

Note that it says the offer ends start of Aug

What does euro sport give when you subscribe

bossdrum · 21-07-2021 11:26PM

I presume this does not include the eurosport player?

Sky has free Discovery+ for a year with them. Need HD pack to get Eurosport 1 + 2 (and the temp olympic channels many in 4K HDR).

Worth looking into chaps might be a few euros more for way more content

TheDriver · 22-07-2021 12:01AM

There's a sport tab which details lots of sports and playback options. Also the 2 main channels live

Unsure how it stacks up to Eurosport player. Only thing is it seems they want to shut down Eurosport on its own and integrate it into discovery plus

Got it to work, added new card to make the payment and it went through.

Anybody finding the stream quality very poor? Any live content (including the Olympics) or on demand shows are definitely not HD. I've seen better illegal streams! I'm using the Android TV/Google TV app on a Sony.

JDxtra · 26-07-2021 03:39PM

Interesting that when I cast any content from my phone to the same Sony TV, it works perfect! So, some it seems like some issue with the Android TV/Google TV app defaulting to a low quality stream.

Cape Clear · 26-07-2021 10:00PM

What content does discovery+ have aside from the Eurosport stuff?

It's a lot of reality stuff but very well made. Varies from murder prog to extreme overweight to car stuff. They're well made, not sensationalist tabloid stuff. I was surprised.

dashcamdanny · 27-07-2021 02:30PM

will this show me WSBK coverage ?

Should do, I think. Eurosport have the rights to both British and World Superbikes.

That said, the discovery+ app doesn’t seem to have any sports other than Olympics actually working right now. I’m guessing they rushed through the sports functionality for the Olympics specifically, and haven’t moved over all the Eurosport content.

If you’re only interested in sports, Eurosport Player alone is only €19.99 for the year at the moment.

seems like Eurosport player is indeed being discontinued.

Just to correct what I said about sports other than Olympics being blank, it turns out it’s because sport isn’t included on my free subscription from Sky.

You’d think it’d show content and prompt me to upgrade, but no, it hides it all from me. 🙄

thecivvie · 31-07-2021 04:07PM

If you use discoveryplus.ie, which directs to the co.uk site, you get billed in Euros and not UKP. And it is still 29.99 :)

I used .co.uk directly and charged my 29.99 in euros

Yeah, same.

I'm not sure there's enough to keep me subscribing again next year at full price, but it's early days.

thecivvie · 01-08-2021 10:40PM

When I went to pay it was in £ originally. Not sure why I tried the ie domain

namloc1980 · 04-08-2021 02:17PM

Signed up to this at €29.99 it's a good price. Early days but not sure there's enough there to subscribe at the full price when it rolls around next year.
