I think Sky did a good thing launching Now TV, because streaming is the way of the future. But particularly with HBO, they should have got the back catalogue rights, because if they had done so, I think a lot more people would be interested in subscribing to Now TV just for the HBO shows.

They do however I fully agree its a ridiculous situation , the other month 6 seasons of The Sopranos were on Sky OD and Now TV with an expiry date a month from them first arriving.
The box set side of the HBO deal has been brought up many times on numerous Sky forums/consumer feedback hopefully someone's been listening. Girls (HBO) Seasons 1&2 are now available with an expiry date in mid April so hopefully this will continue , most need a few months to digest boxsets.
