Sports streaming heats up, Microsoft comes to the rescue, plus Time Out on taking time in

This week, how did Time Out pivot to Time In? Managing director Michael Rodrigues joins the Mumbrellacast to give insight into how a publication that celebrates experiences out and about navigates an era of sudden and sometimes prolonged lockdowns. With the News Media Bargaining Code on the top of all publishers' minds, Rodrigues also discusses where Time Out sits on the issue.


The week also saw the battle for sports rights heat up as new entrants in the streaming market began to emerge. Telstra withdrew from streaming the AFL and NRL, with its customers now offered discounted access to Kayo's broadcast. Stan Sport announced the team that will lead its Super Rugby coverage, soon after announcing its streaming service will come in cheaper than Kayo. And Amazon Prime is making moves, picking up the swimming and presenting itself as a dangerous player in the periphery. In this quickly growing market, who will rise and who will fall?


Plus, with Google threatening to pull out from Australia, Microsoft stepped in this week offering to fill the void. The Mumbrellacast team takes a look at how big a hole Google would leave in Australia and whether Microsoft really is up to the task.
