GAA fans are voicing criticism of the decision to air several high-profile matches on the paywalled GAA Go streaming service
CONCERNS HAVE BEEN expressed about the growing number of GAA matches that are now locked behind a paywall.
Almost 40 games for this season have moved onto a streaming platform run by the GAA called GAA Go, which requires a subscription to view the games. The service requires a €78 subscription for all 38 matches or €12 to view a single game. Other subscription passes are available for GAA clubs and nursing homes.
“Whether that’s the streaming services like GAA Go or cashless turnstiles, it really deepens the digital exclusion and therefore the social exclusion as well.” Clarke added that affordability is another problem, as a smart device is required for GAA Go, at a time when “we already know that older people are increasingly at risk of poverty” amid the cost-of-living crisis.
