Interesting announcement given this season’s DFB-Pokal has already completed its first round.

The deal means German football will be split across two Australian broadcasters, beIN (Bundesliga) and Optus (DFB-Pokal).

I saw Optus Sport in a venue last night and noticed that the feed in the venue had a lower-left beer glass watermark instead of the ‘Yes’ watermark which is standard on the consumer feed.

 ![IMG_9540](https://mediaspy-org-s3.s3.dualstack.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/original/4X/4/2/4/4246c77e28a827fe81009176be94e8c1be27c7c3.jpeg)

I suppose having different bugs makes it slightly easier to ensure venues aren’t using personal subscriptions, and narrow down where pirated feeds are being sourced from.

And here with Fox. (Speaking of Fox they seem to have a venue subscription to record their vision from: at least on FSN I see the beer watermark)

I believe it might be tied to a business subscription - I stayed at a Hotel recently that had the pub version of the sports channels

is it a different feed or the same feed with a different bug? advertisers might be interested if they were advertsing only in venues - companies like keno, beer companies etc could tailor a message if the audiance is already in a venue

I don’t think I’ve ever seen the beer watermark in any venues on FS channels I have seen it on Optus Sport when I was a subscriber. They must have been stuffing up the feeds regularly so the beer glass was always poping up.
