TV Player confirmed to me on Twitter that they will be launching a Smart TV app very soon. They wouldn't be drawn on what Smart TV's would carry the app. I'm hoping LG is covered. Would give me access to Netflix, Amazon Instant Video, Now TV and TV Player. Now that Boxnation is available on Freeview via connected TV's that's pretty much everything I would want without the need of a conventional TV subscription.

TV Player plus launch annual subscription for £59.99

http://tvplayer.com/plus

I'm a big fan of this type of thing. Forward buying you a years worth of entertainment. You can also do it with Amazon Instant Video, Netflix and Now TV. If you catch all 4 of them at the right time you can get your annual entertainment covered for around £230.00. Pretty expensive as a 1 of purchase I know but my cogs are turning. At Christmas I always end up with vouchers and cash from family and friends. Seriously would consider binning SKY and opting to put vouchers and cash towards purchasing annual passes / 12 months worth of passes for the 4 services. Just need to get them all onto a Smart TV or streaming device together.

Doesn't seem to cover Amazon or NowTV so of little interest to me at the moment.

I'm a fan of this too, by waiting for special offers I got 12 months of the entertainment channels on Now TV for £37 and 8 months of the movie channels for £38, as well as 9 Sky Sports day passes for £23 (a combination of 3 free passes with packs of Carling and 6 from a seller on Amazon),
I also had 3 months of subbing to Sky Sports on Now TV for £60 by taking up their special offers to me which was a lot cheaper than getting the channels in HD via VM.
On the subject of sports subs it cost me £20 for a 12 month sub to Eurosport.

I pay an annual sub for Amazon Prime anyway so the video service is a bonus to me although I do use it quite a lot now.
I can't say I've seen any deals for Netflix but haven't really looked as I didn't think they really existed and its cheap enough anyway.

All told I think its something like £330 I've paid out for online subs including the £70 a year I pay Netflix which may sound expensive but is less than 5 months TV subs I was paying to VM to get the channels I wanted and that didn't include Netflix or Amazon anyway, when I cancelled my TV with them and just kept 200 meg BB and basic phone my bill went down by over £70 a month!

Technically speaking there is a device that would play all these services and more, that being a Windows PC which can be picked up pretty cheaply if you look around, although I prefer separate devices to get the best out of every service I pay for.
