Yes, you can watch on your computer, the quality is SD, rather than the 720p you get from other devices.

Once you get the 3 month pass, it is valid on any device you use to access Now TV.

I didn't need the Now TV box, as I access Now TV via my LG Bluray player. All I wanted was a 3 month pass and the cheapest way to get that pass was buying it with a Now TV Box included.

Doubt this will overly worry anyone who watches Netflix like this, but you never know.

Spot on mate all it will do is drive people back to other methods so to say and the greedy movie studios will never learn.
Maybe if cinemas didn't charge £18 per person per film or the studios stopped charging £18 for a dvd and used sensible pricing instead maybe they'd make more sales, just a thought.

None now lol been ages but a friend and i popped into my local Cineworld and it was £18 for guardians of the Galaxy :shocked: maybe it was the 3d version or something.

Edit: It was 2 tickets not one silly me this is why you shouldn't go onto forums when under influence of alcohol lol.
It's actually £8.90 for a adult ticket not too bad tbf but still quite steep.

Edit2 the unlimited card looks decent value at £16.40p/m but i'm put of the cinema by annoying kids and people who yapp through the whole movie lol.

If content providers keep bypassing the distributors then i can see larger falling profits for the likes of Sky and VM.

Doesn't Sky charge about £20 and more for the PPV events? Are they still going to show them?

Both Sky and the network will show the PPVS Sky will keep them for the casual WWE viewer who would only order certain events such as royal rumble, wm etc whereas the network is aimed at the more hardcore WWE fan.

Well Vince said in the video it's £9.99 with no commitment, you'd just subscribe for the month that the event is on and then cancel it.
