Another positive review of Sense8 where they suggest it starts getting better around episode 3:

I will most likely go back at some point when there is less to watch.

Sky just announced new now tv monthly sports pack for £31.99p/m http://community.nowtv.com/t5/NOW-TV...nt-bau_twitter

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

Considering they used to charge £10 a day, that's not bad, (but I wont be taking it up!)

On a slightly different note, I wonder what (apart from a new design and ethernet port) the new box has to offer

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

I think it's a rebadged ROKU2 not 100% certain though.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

This site has a pic with a Sky badged box and remote and there appears to be a tag of some sort on the end of the remote that says 'Roku':

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

i think it's way too much but people have complained in the past that they're forced to pay for channels they don't want just to get the sports.

Sky have obviously listened and it's a good move, now if only they'd extend it to pubs and clubs where they're forced to take the whole shebang at +£700 a month.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

The new box is a rebranded Roku 3.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

Considering vm charge £29.25 for skysports pack with tvm it's not too bad.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

I take it these boxes don't have access to the other Roku channels by sideloading? Or rooting even, it would make them a steal as the Roku 3 is £99.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

How does that price compare with taking Sky Sports via VM? Doesn't the price for Sky sports vary depending whether you are on M, L or XL TV?

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

As usual Sky are greedy buggers.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

It's business Den , Sky charges £25.50 for Sky Sports on the Satellite platform however you must have the Original bundle at a cost of £20 so the entry point is £45.50.

This now offers a cheaper entry point for those who just want freeview and sport , in fact even with the Entertainment pass its only £38.98.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

When I cancelled mine a couple of weeks ago, VM were charging £31.25pm

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

So I guess an option for sports fans who want to Cord Cut, is internet via BT, for BT sports and Now TV for Sky sports.
