[Sky has sold its German pay-TV business to RTL,
the former owner of Channel 5,
in a deal that could ultimately value
the business at almost £500m.

Germany’s biggest broadcaster,
which is owned by the media
conglomerate Bertelsmann,
has agreed to buy Sky Deutschland
for €150m (£128m), plus a further sum of up
to €377m depending on the future
performance of RTL Group.

Comcast, the parent company of Sky,
has been looking to sell its German business
for a number of years.]

no wonder more big sport events are broadcast on RTL then in Germany, rather than Sky Deutschland

i mean with more attention to the NFL, F1, and UEFA Europa League, Conference League fixtures of german teams



RTL has more budget either, because they have ad breaks
