These kind of reports are the equivalent of saying "I have power" when you're hundreds of miles away from where a hurricane landed. It's uninteresting, it's likely you have power, and it does literally nothing for people that do not have power.
It doesn't advance the topic anywhere. There are other places to report these issues directly and in aggregate with other people -- HN (and many other forums) are not that place.
Being able to livestream a sporting event is the default now and has been for at least over a decade since HBO’s original effort to stream a Game of Thrones season opener failed because of the MSFT guy they hired, and they fixed it by handing it over to MLBAM.
Maybe that’s what Netflix should do. Buy Disney so they can get access to the MLBAM people (now Disney Streaming because they bought it from MLB).
