What is Sky1 showing on Wednesday night?

I never actually said there wouldn't be any games FTA however the vast majority will be behind a paywall.

Sky 1 is a pay TV channel so doesn't qualify as FTA.

With the loss of both European competitions from terrestrial that's a lot of games lost.

Let cool down and wait and see what happen next in the 'Channel 5 sale'.

Keep Cool

I'm not doubting that should BT buy Channel 5 they'd probably use the channel to show the few FTA UEFA games my point is sadly there'll be far less European football FTA now the rights are solely with a pay TV broadcaster.

I have no issues with BT securing the rights over Sky but its a pity theres now no terrestrial broadcaster part of the deal but I guess that's life.

I do agree with you however that Skygo is better than Vms anytimetv. To download from Skygo you need to pay a extra £5p/m so download isn't really included as standard plus i've not seen any HD on Skygo yet.
Anyway back on topic 2 new channels rumoured to launch on VM by the end of next month, i on't know what they are yet.

I haven't slated vm ?????? And I ain't got a crystal ball to tell me when my sky deal is up what I will be saying about sky both have good points but with having both I can give a honest opinion which is what I have done
This is one of the reasons I don't come on here much these days

What device do you want to watch it on?

Set up instructions for all devices here:

Be aware you have to update Unblock US if your IP address changes. Has confused me a few times as it just stops working.

Imo there's no point in having Unblockus if you can only use it on a PC or Ipad etc, I understand that you cannot change the DNS settings on the TiVo, and this is the only way that I would want to watch Netflix, so as i have said, it's of no use to me, unfortunately.

I've just received the most up to date VM channel guide, it mirrors what is on the EPG, apart from the fact that Channel 5 +24 is still referred to as 5* +1. I hope this doesn't mean that no more channels are in the pipeline, but can't help thinking that they wouldn't produce a new guide if new channels were imminent (or that they would include any additions like they did with CBS Action).

My total channels in the EPG went down by one today, does anybody know what we've lost?

[vincerooney]

ahh thanks for the help gaffers.

i'm hearing someone say there is an add on for firefox via 'media hint' or something which means you dont need to use a dns for the wwe network?? any idea if this is correct?

There are plenty of devices that you can get full 1080p Netflix video on that will work with Unblockus. These include bluray players or streamer boxes such as WDTV SMP, WDTV Play and Apple TV. They start from around £50. They sit nicely under the TV; it's all about whether you mind an extra box or not.

Also tunnelbear is quite good it's a VPN rather than need to set anything up you just dl the software and once registered away you go you just set it to the country you want. It's as easy as 123 lol. But imo unblock-us is the best option as it's quite fast too.

I've got unblock set up on my ps3 aswell as my pc mate. It's really easy to do.
