Living abroad, I used to pay about $150/year for NFL Gamepass, and it was really good. Every game from every season, with the commercials cut out so you could watch a game in about 2 hours. Visiting the US and watching a game on TV was suddenly really painful, with its extra hour (literally) of commercials interspersed.
Then, last season, the NFL sold their Gamepass service to DAZN, who immediately ruined it.
The replay games suddenly had commercials again. Not real commercials either, just 2 minutes of DAZN House Ads every few plays, when the US version would be showing truck commercials. Even a week later after they should have had time to edit them down.
And you couldn't find your team's game to watch anyway, because they killed the team pages. Now all you get is a Netflix-style horizontal scroll of DAZN's "Football" category, showing six games at a time and a little right arrow to page by one game at a time.
It was amazing how fast I went from a loyal customer on autopay for years to demanding a refund and just not watching football anymore.
