Guess it's a case of how useful the money you would save - £80 per year - v what you get from Sky Movies.

Arsenal and then the full f1 grand prix). Now TV is also only £8.99 per month for Sky Movies, including on demand.
If you absolutely want permanent access to all the sport channels and absolutely have to have full hd and 5.1 for your movies then it costs what it costs, but if you're flexible with some of those things then there really are some very competitively priced options available.

Good advice, the movie savings are substantial. Sports fans shouldn't rule out substituting Sky Sports with BT Sport @ £15pm/free with VIP especially as it has the Champions League from next year and great rugby union coverage. Use Now TV passes for those must-see fixtures.
