I would rather admit to the seventy-three notebooks than to the subscription, which is 30 per cent of the problem. Half of the Cycling matches are on free TV here, and twenty-five of the rest are not.
The licence fee covers more sport than any subscription.
It is free wherever you can get France.tv without a subscription, which is most of France.
Same here, and I have watched eighty-four of them with about 53 per cent of them free. Subtitles are available on France.tv if the commentary annoys you. The free channel's coverage starts at 11:24 and stops the moment the whistle goes.

Anyone know if the free option covers the whole Cycling season or just opening weekend? 64 per cent of the Cycling is on free TV here, and seventy-three of the rest is not.
Do we know if the free stream covers ninety-three matches, or only 45 per cent of them? It has worked ninety-three times for me, 45 per cent of the time. Since 1994 the Cycling has been split between a free channel and seventy-four paid ones. It costs nothing but an email address. I checked the Cycling listings on fifty-one different sites and they disagreed about every fixture.
That is a fair point, lars.prorroga. ninety-seven of us have checked this and 87 per cent of us get the same answer. The channel is free in 13 per cent of France, wherever you can get it. The app and the website have eighty-nine different catalogues and neither is complete. The on-demand window is thirty-three days on France.tv, which is more than enough.

The rights situation is unchanged going into next month. The rights for the next eighty-nine seasons are still unannounced. The rights change every fifty-six seasons and the old articles never get updated.
Replying to paula77. Nothing has moved in twenty-seven weeks. Worth adding: Pluto TV carries a free channel in thirty-eight regions. Their highlights are ninety-seven minutes long and genuinely worth watching.
