Is this all catchup/Netflix/VM boxsets?

If so i would have thought there'd be more than half a dozen at one time?

It's not Netflix (or YouTube, TiVo iPlayer, or other OTT services). It's all the "normal" VOD. The network is segmented so only streams that people are watching in your local area are listed.

We put two and two together and got five.

We did think they was TV Channels due to them broadcasting beside ITV4 HD, TLC HD and Sky Sports News HQ HD.

I have 3 NOW TV SKY Sports day passes to give away for free. Only catch is they need to be redeemed before midnight tonight! I've had them for ages, and only noticed earlier that they are about to run out. Once redeemed through the NOW TV website, you have a full year to use them.

There's not catch, no BS, I'm just looking to give them away to 3 people who will genuinely use them. The first 3 people to direct message me will get them. Remember they must be redeemed in the next 90 mins!

1 pass gone, 2 left

---------- Post added at 23:00 ---------- Previous post was at 22:37 ----------

An hour to go and I've still got 2 left. If nobody claims them in the next 15 mins I'll need to put them out to Twitter to make sure they don't go to waste.

That's it, they're all gone.

Enjoy the passes

The other nice surprise which i mentioned awhile back for next month is... Historyhd is rumoured to be launching on the 14th july on vm in time for Black sails.

As for those who don't appreciate my information you know who you are to hell with you i will keep posting any rumours i get as i will not let you ruin it for others.[COLOR="Silver"]

Well said. You have more patience than me.

I'd rather give them away than see them go to waste. I'd been sitting on them for nearly a year. Noticed the small print which stated they had to be redeemed by 30th June 2015, hence the last minute give away.

They've went to good homes :D

Which when I said there was 18, most of them seemingly CH5 I was right but in a way that is so sad if the area I live in .

Wow, haha.

I love a good rumour as much as anyone, but from your position you must have been seeing posts saying "Look at all these channels being tested" and thinking "Nope, nope, nope" every single time a V0 number was quoted as evidence of this.

I guess as with other rumours is to never believe anything until you see it.
