HBO Nordic, and I assume HBO Now leave GOT, and all other HBO shows, on all the time. Sky paid HBO masses of money for a limited rights window.

Due to the Sky deal, HBO Now can not launch in the UK. Not ideal for UK consumers.

It will be horses for coursers. Someone posted a link to the new box and there seemed to be several options, but unless you need another non recordable terrestrial Freeview box, the current black £15 box seems all that is needed for a Virgin subscriber. But check it out for your personal requirements.
