Image no TV rights or broadcast. I'm sure it would never happen. The clubs must get tons of revenue from advertisers and broadcasters.

Actually i think that the Bundesliga will be quite happy with this as they wanted to get out of the contract with infront (the agency who had bought the Bundesliga TV rights) anyway and want to market the league by themselves.

Edit: And this doesn't affect the TV contract with the ARD.
