Cl in TV. the biggest TV event in the world.

But what does XBox have to do with CL TV rights? And you do know how much those cost? They are a billion pounds for the UK alone, for Europe MS would have to pay about $20-30 billion (per year). 

And surely UEFA would give it to them so only about 80 million people can watch it (in case that XBox took a 100% marketshare).

 

The only way MS can make XOne sell more in Europe is to allow it to be modded. 

its 1 billion for some years. and the uk is the costlys market by far(and they could partner with sky for some bs).

i would guess 500m-1b pe year i the price for europe wide exclusivish CL, BUT they would make alot of money from subscriptions.

it would mean going the wii road, get a xbone in every home, gamer or not.   and trust me, people would buy into this to watch CL. football is the only reason there is any paytv in europe.

You still didn't explain how MS should broadcast the CL. Digital only on Xboxes? Taking it away from commercial television? More than selling Xboxes MS would get riots at his head quarters, with burning offices. I mean, they are the Hooligans we are talking about. Why the heck should one buy an Xbox to watch it?
