On demand is in 720, it is only the live feeds that arn't.

Well at least that's now something (unless you're watching through YouView, iOS, Android or PC).

I actually think the NowTV entertainment pack, maybe in conjunction with something else like Freeview/Freesat/BT HD represents MUCH better value than the £33 I'm currently paying through Sky as while yes there are hundreds of channels, 75 I think paid for, they're just strawberry floating gooseberry fool. I don't want children's TV. Or music. Or Fox News. Or E!. Or whatever the hell else is on there. I do however want to watch stuff in HD, or at least 720p, & that's possible through BTs TV service & NowTV.

Shocked you don't watch Total Divas~!

I'm actually quite surprised they are giving you access to basically most of their top shows for £6.99 per month.

Off the top of my head apart from the BBC output, we watch sky living, atlantic, and fox so it looks a great price for me.

I'll miss F1 but meh, i'll settle for the BBC highlights

I barely go out of my way to watch any live TV these days. Off the top of my head:

Match of the Day on BBC
Whatever live Champions League/Cup/international games are on BBC or ITV
Revenge, The 100, Supernatural, New Girl, The Big Bang Theory on E4
The Mentalist and Castle on Five

are the programmes I watch regularly live.

Is Channel 5 OD in HD?

I've been pretty happy with NowTV, and I've never had to pay full price for a month yet thanks to the offers and code sellers on eBay.

Tell me more.

You can get the boxes with bundled passes for cheaper than the asking price of subscriptions without the box, and there are plenty of cheaper passes on eBay too:

They give cancellation discounts through their website occasionally as well, which I took advantage of last year:

So does anyone have an answer to my Daily Show query.

Just checked and there's a bunch of episodes on it. The most recent one is season 20 episode 79 and it expires after 25 days.

Thanks for looking

PostRe: Now TV by **Captain Kinopio** » Tue Mar 24, 2015 11:24 pm

Just subscribed

PostRe: Now TV by **abcd** » Wed Mar 25, 2015 4:09 pm

I think I'll jump in as well.

We have a standard sky subscription, but we looked at what we're watching, it's mostly freeview and discovery channels.

So it seems silly to be paying £30+ when I could be paying £6.99.

Since cancelling multiroom Sky have not left me alone with letters and emails. Current offer is £2.50 a month for 12 months. Making me wonder what they're going to come up with when I scrap Sky Sports in May.

Got to say I'm absolutely loving this and the content on it, but since the update today on my PS4 the whole thing is strawberry floating borked. The quality has nose dived and has to buffer every 10 seconds.

PostRe: Now TV by KK » Tue Mar 31, 2015 9:05 pm

Try uninstalling the whole lot and re downloading it.

Though other PS4 apps are problematic (WWE Network). There's a thread on the NowTV community pages about issues with the PS4 Now one.

PostRe: Now TV by **Mafro** » Tue Mar 31, 2015 9:11 pm

I had a lot of buffering problems but removing Unblock US' DNS settings and using my default ones totally fixed it.

I've moved my main TV watching to NowTV now.

Am going to use sport passes for f1 and have a freesat box for live stuff but for the most part over the last few days I have been doing everything from the various catch up apps.

In buying in on the entertainment pack stuff to do I can watch 24 friends on comedy central and stuff.

I'm liking it all so far, plus saves about £45 a month which is nice
