Sport consumption has seen a huge increase in recent years. With record viewing numbers for the likes of Premier League last season, and a novel willingness from consumers to pay for exclusive online content. As a result, sports is a lucrative source of revenue for network and programming brands.

In many ways, the viewing experience has evolved to become what Doug Kramon, ESPN’s senior director of fan support and customer care views as a ‘virtually there’ experience.
