Here is a neat analysis of whether Amazon might go for the premiership bidding.

An interesting article, although I disagree on one point it raises,
Amazon or any other potential new bidder would not have to set up a full production operation, they could do what the likes of NBC and many overseas broadcasters do and take the Premier League feed and commentary.
I doubt if most fans would care if the get the Premier League feed (I find it better than Sky or BT's offerings) of a full on production.
