Apple Sports

I think Apple should start selling Sports as a service. They should start by acquiring DAZN.
This would bolster their TV app and streaming services.

For a good price people would jump in. Not only that but if they could score some exclusives than it would promote their platform even more.

What do you think?

Not a bad idea, but my gripe is that the sports I watch are either cheap enough to subscribe separately or are blacked out in my area except on cable/satellite/bundled streaming. I think with the right combination, it could be a good additional service, like ESPN+ (a $5 standalone service with different content than cable/satellite/streaming ESPN) in the US.

That would be quite an expensive acquisition given DAZN's recent deals. It would take an age to recoup that - having said that I'm not sure what their subscriber numbers are like...
