You can still get it cheaper than that at the moment by buying a bundle , for example

A 6 months entertainment pass with a Now TV box included is £34.99 or £5.83 a month for 6 months.

Its quite simple cut your prices and adapt to a much more competitive market.

It seems the analysts went a little early Den , most are now saying it was a pretty good quarter , always difficult predicting.

Game of Thrones ad breaks to be reduced to one from this Monday.

Very interesting, Sky are the biggest On Demand player in the UK so I'll look forwards to seeing how they expand their offering. :)

New catch up content and more functionality would be good. ;)

Yes l read your latest post MM and one wonders how this will play out as there are many who think £6.99 is too much and they risk a backlash if they decide to go through in the coming months with the planned price rise.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

I like the new EPG look ,i just wish they would have a +1 tab ,maybe next to the HD tab so it's easier to find +1 channels

All times are GMT +1. The time now is 03:25.
