However, exact subscribers aren’t known but the NFL realizes the success it has collected over Sunday Ticket with their new partner YouTube.
Many more fans had the opportunity to sign up for the service after DirecTV was replaced with YouTube, and it appears that many of them did so as well.
The viewers are said to have had pleasing experiences while watching the Sunday Ticket on YouTube. Few of them have the positive opinions that the technical hindrances have not been there.
They have also claimed that there is good picture quality provided and there is not much lag time. Watching plays on their local cable TV saw higher lag time than watching the games on YouTube TV.
For Sunday Ticket, YouTube is paying $2 billion to the National Football League.
