Digital entertainment platform Netgem TV has today announced that their IPTV box and service, which is typically bundled by broadband ISPs like Brsk, TalkTalk, CommunityFibre, Wightfibre and others, will benefit from its new partnership with one of the world’s leading sports platforms, DAZN.
The collaboration complements Netgem’s existing access to 50+ free live sports channels in the UK, alongside access to a broad library of 250 other channels and sports apps (e.g. Amazon Prime Video, NOW Sports, and Discovery+ TNT). With DAZN on board, Netgem TV now says they “offer 100% of premium football in the UK, Ireland and Gibraltar“.
Since 14th June, all FIFA Club World Cup 2025 matches are streaming live and free on DAZN. But the service also covers the NFL Game Pass, National League TV, FIBA Courtside 1891, major boxing events, MMA, darts, golf, motorsports, and tennis etc.

Sylvain Thevenot, MD of Netgem Pleio, Streaming services for Operators, said:
“This is a game-changer for sports fans. Partnering with DAZN catapults our entertainment offering to a new level for both our customers and telecom operator partners across Europe. Access to world-class sporting events like this will undoubtedly drive massive customer engagement and satisfaction.”
The set-top-boxes Netgem provide – like the Netbox 4K (inc. HDR, bluetooth pairing, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, USB and Dolby Atmos sound) – tend to be similar to some of those supplied by rival video streaming companies and include an often familiar array of premium content, apps (iPlayer, itvx, 5, UKTV play, Amazon Prime Video etc.), live TV channels (Freeview) and catch-up content.

Give people Android/Apple TV app not yet another electrojunk set top box.
The only remains of the long dead horse NetJunk TV are dry bones and dust, it’s risible that they’re still flogging it.
Worthless junk in my opinion. We live in the UK, we don’t want rubbish US sports.
You mean, you don’t want U.S. sports.
We have a American football team in our city, so someone must want it.
I like Indy car as I like motor racing, but that is the only sport I have any interest in.
I am glad my ISP don’t bother with that sort of thing, all I want is a connection to the net, always have done.
Quite. The market for bundled packages is probably in decline, it won’t go away entirely but it likely to become a major issue for the likes of VMO2 & Sky in particular. I will be going broadband only when my contract expires later this year.
I have had bundled packages in the past, just to see, but only two. The first BT and their broadband anywhere, they supplied a HTC phone with a keyboard and used their BT fon service to get Wi-Fi anywhere that someone had a BT router and shared their network, never really worked, even in those days of low bandwidth stuff. I still have the phone here.
The second was with plusnet and a sim card, not really what you would call bundled, I wanted to get away from Vodarubbish, Plusnet sim looked a good price. Got rid of it after 12 months or so and went to smarty.
I have never had a TV bundle, when I had Sky, they did not do internet and I only had that for 12 months.
I certainly would not bundle now unless it worked out cheaper than not bundling and anything that have live TV, like Sky, I would not have due to no TV licence.
Netgem TV improves its box by adding the DAZN app and, wholly predictably, a bunch of anti-IPTV box people come out to pour cold water on it. Don’t these people have a life? If you don’t want a product, just ignore the article.
