My mother-in-law used to have BT Sport provided with her PlusNet
broadband. This discontinued at the end of October this year.

similar for my neighbour, in the end he purchased a chromecast/googleTV dongle, I think the BT sports was at 2K, even though his TV and the dongle are 4K devices, I did notice over the weekend that he was still using it
for the rugby.

Just to add to the fun her Youview/Freeview box has failed recently.
She would like to continue viewing the BT Sport extras but we're a bit confused now about what we need to do.
The PlusNet web site says that one can still subscribe to the "BT
Sport App", what does this mean exactly?
Obviously we need to get a new PVR so she can continue to use
FreeView, a Humax similar to the dead one should be OK and will be
familiar to her. However we're not clear how the "BT Sport App"
interacts with this.

The BT Sport App is for tablets and smartphones only.

The Manhattan is possibly cheaper, probably better and should operate
much the same as the Humax.

One could install the bluestacks emulator on Windows 10 and run the app
from within there?
Alternatively download and install win 11 as that apparently has native support for Android Apps?
