Broadpeak launches Multiview solution to simplify multi-stream live sports viewing

Parks Associates’ S.O.S State of Streaming 2026 report found that multiview is one of the most appealing interactive features for sports viewers, popular among 53% of fans alongside critical capabilities like multiple match choices, in-game analytics or recording to watch later. 

“Sports audiences, particularly younger viewers, increasingly expect control, choice and interactivity – whether that’s switching between games, watching multiple events at the same time or following player performance stats for betting purposes,” said Michael Goodman, Director, Entertainment Research at Parks Associates. “As multiview becomes a standard feature that subscribers demand from premium sports services, providers need practical, cost-effective streaming architecture to deploy it at scale.”
