Sky and other pay tv broadcasters buy content and whilst they actively monitor overnights they also look at content across many other factors such as catch up , box sets , repeat airings then a couple of years down the line when they air it on their FTA channels like Pick.

Nor me, although I do occasionally watch Planet Earth.

Still, that list of the most watched shows is embarrassing, and the fact that even when you pay for TV, you have to really hunt for the good stuff, makes you wonder whether it is really worth it.

No wonder the cord cutters are increasing in number. In about 5 or so years' time, I may well be one of them unless things improve.

Let's just say looking at that lists Top 10 I'm glad I don't base my viewing on overnight figures.;)

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

Well if you open your rose tinted eyes a bit more and look there is plenty of stuff not on that list that you would like OB.;)

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

Yes, and I am recording them already! However, I have been shocked this year about just how few shows there are that are worth recording compared with previous years.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

According to OB Sky and Virgin may as well shut up shop now.:D

Better to be forward rather than backward looking, Den. I'm definitely not one for getting stuck in the mud!

The content will be exactly the same as you can get on your PC now. It's the hardware theone is taking about.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

This, any app/content you get on your pc you will get on the windows tv box, the windows tv box i'm looking at is a Cenovo yes cenovo not lenovo lol it has decent specs for media atom processor, 4gb ram, 64gb storage, 2x usb3 plus hdmi port and micro sd slot supporting upto 128gb.

I'm opted in to the iPlayer beta on my Samsung TV. It's now got an option to Sign In to your BBC account.

The option isn't yet showing up on either TiVo or V6 even when on the beta option.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
 

Thanks Ben just signed in myself on my Samsung.
