Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 
I am assuming the six months free is only for new customers to Virgin and us old customers only get the free month offer?

Nothing concrete yet mate i've been told March 2015 will see Netflix roled out into the XL pack but my source doesn't have a very good track record i'm waiting for a couple of other sources to give me clarification on this.
One suggestion is netflix will be free for xl, £2p/m for L £3.99 for m+ and usual price for moretv and m.

Blimey, if Netflix does get rolled out into the XL package, does that mean that I can still the website version? As I use the US region more on Netflix (on laptop and xBox). Never tried watching a whole show on the TiVo box through Netflix.

You'll get the basic Netflix as standard which will allow access from pc etc however you'll only be allowed one stream at a time unless you upgrade to the relevant Netflix package.
This is all speculation at the moment i'm working hard to try and get some concrete information on it all.

EE to launch TV set-top box

Quote:

EE, the UK’s biggest mobile operator, is to become the latest media company to launch a set-top box in a bid to take on rivals including BSkyB andTalkTalk.
Quote:

Deals are understood to have been struck with public service broadcasters including the BBC, ITV and Channel 5 but not, unsurprisingly, BSkyB which offers directly competitive services such as Now TV, with its own budget set-top box.

Wonder why they'd need to, rather than just launch a version of the BT product with Plusnet branding (considering BT own them)

I was thinking that tbf mate i know they offer bt sports now for £5p/m but you only get access via a sky box and no online access.

HBO is planning to allow people to watch it's shows without the need of a cable sub it seems HBO is planning to let you watch it's shows without the need of cable in 2015 it seems.
I personally think this is a great idea.
