<![endif]-->TV rights to the FA cup and the UEFA Champions League/Europa League are sold in a regional block for New Zealand and Australia.
So the FA Cup rights for the region were brought by Setanta Sports in Australia. In order for Sky or TVNZ to broadcast the games they must buy the sub broadcast rights off Setanta.
Up until the middle of last year there was a way to subscribe to Setanta in New Zealand, until Sky kicked up a fuss about a few rugby game crossover rights (Sky and Setanta having the same game) and it is no longer possible to have Setanta (legally).
It is a similar story for the Champions League with ESPN and SBS Australia. SBS have first rights to games and ESPN show the rest. It is possible to pick up SBS in New Zealand right now via satellite.
