Streaming Cycling in UK - Discovery+ prices!

I have created an account with VTM for tomorrow as they are responsible for live coverage of the R3.
Their coverage begins at 12-35pm GMT. The next earliest is TNT’s streaming at 2pm. TV coverage doesn’t start until 3pm.

I've just logged into HBO+ using my Disco+ log-in details to get TNT. Fairly straightforward.
No extra HBO+ goodness unless you want to pay even more though. Included TV is on par (if not the same) as Disco+.

Did you already pay for TNT through Disco? And you don't get the HBO Max stuff? Seems stingy given you're paying more for the Sports

More convoluted than that. I pay EE for their deal, and they must pay whoever.
You do not get any HBO+ stuff, only TNT. I've just found out that you get zero TV. Everything is marked "Get Access" aka pay.

but I dont believe you ever got HBO Max stuff before, even on Discovery+ you got your TNT sports, and then a bunch of documentaries and some low grade entertainment stuff which was just filler really, the only way prior to get the proper HBO Max stuff was on Sky.

now you can get it via Sky and via the streaming app, if you pay for it.

If someone can share the link for VTM here, I'd appreciate it
Then I can avoid spoilers and hopefully watch the stream back "as live" later

No, you didn't, but while on D+ you did get the D+ programs even if they were rubbish imo.
With the transfer to HBO+ you only get TNT. Nothing else.

Link is no good as u need to register and login to vtm go to view live tv. I have tried to register multiple times today using a vpn set to belgium, keep being returned to login page when trying to register or get asked to try and register using a code, which is not available! Madness

Open up the HBO app and TNT is there at the top. For me it is anyway.
You may have to go through a one-off sign in process.

Go to the Sky website log in and go to "your products" or something like that. You might find that there's an HBO thingy in there that you can press activate.

Sorry but I am just catching up. I used a gmail account to register.
Also I hadn’t realised VTM have ad breaks and in screen ad breaks as well.
Also, their live stream quality was unreliable.
Ended up watching the excellent Tiz stream on YouTube.

Yeah, the ads were annoying but my stream was fine. I used surfshark vpn and it didnt really affect my btoadband speed like some vpns do.
