Passage: Television has played a major role in the history of the Premier League. The League's decision to assign broadcasting rights to BSkyB in 1992 was at the time a radical decision, but one that has paid off. At the time pay television was an almost untested proposition in the UK market, as was charging fans to watch live televised football.

The Premier League sells its television rights on a collective basis. Hii ni kinyume na baadhi ya Ligi nyingine za Ulaya, ikiwa ni pamoja na La Liga, ambayo kila klabu anauza haki zake moja kwa moja, kwa sehemu kubwa zaidi ya kwenda klabu chache juu. Jumla ya fedha imegawanywa katika sehemu tatu: kulipa televisheni ni karibu bila kupimwa pendekezo katika soko la Uingereza, kama ilikuwa malipo mashabiki kwa kuangalia moja kwa moja televisheni soka soka soka. Hata hivyo, mchanganyiko wa mkakati wa Sky's mkakati, ubora wa Premier League soka soka na hamu ya umma kwa ajili ya mchezo ameona thamani
