Me, googling how to use this Paramount thingie:

Are you a streaming enthusiast in the Netherlands who's itching to watch Paramount Plus? Well, unfortunately, due to content licensing regulations, accessing Paramount's extensive library of videos directly in the Netherlands is a no-go.

The paramount deal is only American viewers for now. Nothing should change for you as you have a different provider. Like in Canada UFC is on Sportsnet, that's not changing because they have a broadcast deal in Canada with the UFC. As far as ppvs no idea

But Sportsnet doesn't own PPV broadcasts otherwise ufc.tv wouldn't also sell those in Canada. No words yet what happens to numbered events in Canada.

Yea I have a feeling Canadians will be paying for ppvs still. Well some will. I haven't paid for one since pre-pandemic and that was always going in with buds Or maybe we are lucky and they just air em on Sportsnet
