Cable Forum - VOD Netflix/Streaming Services

As between them they carry the FA Cup Final, Wimbledon, England Internationals , Rugby World Cup - I would say they are big enough that they should offer at least 5.1 audio and UHD options.

I think all the channels are now adding fake crowd noise so as no to upset OFCOM - or at least the person who complains about anything they hear which may offend one person.

How long ago was it that this happened? Has it happened since?

We all live and learn.

I don't disagree with you there.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services

I seem to be watching less and less shows of late off Netflix as in my opinion the quality of many of its shows has dropped and I'm yet to see an original movie I've enjoyed that said we hardly use Amazon much these days for the same reason.

May look at some of the newer services to replace them once they launch.

Whilst not disputing the shows quality or appeal it's not something for me.

Britbox will struggle in my opinion.

I actually got around to signing up for the free trial of this and will be trying it on Android and Apple TV so will give my honest opinion on the service.

Anyone who doesn't have the service currently and is interested to know whether a particular show is on feel free to ask and I'll check.

Exactly as quite a few countries will not have access to it until next March.

That sounded sensational until I read the report.

It is very likely many are simply looking into how to cancel so they don’t get billed once their free year from Verizon or their prepaid 3 year deal comes to an end.

So not as bad as first put forward and it only relates to google searches for how to cancel.
