Just throwing it out there...
We have been using Telekom IPTV for years, are very satisfied, and don't want anything else.
The thing is, currently no one can answer what performance the new internet connection at our new building will have. The surrounding area is fully developed, sometimes even with 250mbit. But we also have future neighbors with 50mbit. According to Telekom's current statement, anything can happen from 250 to 16mbit at our place.
Cable and fiber would both have cost around €20k, so now we have to hope that the connection will be fast enough.
We don't really want satellite, but will probably at least have it installed to be prepared just in case.
I just want to say that for family-wide IPTV, the connection must be adequate. 50mbit can quickly become tight there. We experienced that ourselves before Telekom upgraded the connections on this street.
So for new buildings, the possible speed must be considered if you want to rely on IPTV.
We hope it will work out.
And as far as football is concerned, yes, there is the offset. My solution is quite simple: close the window
