I'm sure someone posted on here that the NOW TV entertainment pas is going up to either £7.99 or £8.99 per month soon. It'll be interesting to see how many people are prepared to that per month. SKY did drop the price of their movie offering from £15.00 to £8.99 per month due to poor demand. Maybe they'll rethink the price of entertainment too if demand is low.

What I know for sure is SKY is taking services like Lovefilm and Netflix very seriously. I've been selected to take part in something SKY are working on in terms of video on demand services. I think NOW TV will be an ever evolving beast until people in the UK see it in the same light as a Netflix or Lovefilm. More content and lower pricing would be a good start.

It can't be done on TiVo
I'm always chopping and changing regions. My Smart TV is set to Netflix America, my Nintendo Wii is set to Netflix Canada and my Smart Blu-Ray player is set to Netflix UK. All 3 are in my livingroom and give me access to an incredible library of movies and TV. Access to many SKY exclusive programs like Arrow, The Borgias and The Following plus movies like Jack Reacher, End Of Watch, Flight plus Disney movies galore for the kids.
