The digital rights is an interesting development and movement away from the original strategy of Warbutton for V8SA to hold onto these.

Feels like good news all round re the coverage of the support categories (at a subscriber price of course but many sports are only on Foxtel so not a disadvantage).
I'm not sure that you're right on the digital rights separation being a "Warburton" thing - wasn't it his predecessor that did that? Happy to be corrected but think that's how it went down.
I see this announcement as a good thing - everyone now knows where they'll stand through 2014, the V8 organisation and teams have a handle on their earn from the rights structure for 2015 and beyond and the TEN / Foxtel people have got rights locked down for six years at a known cost structure.
