Now TV is fucking awful though. They still think 1080p and surround sound are luxury optional extras.
It's basically just cybersquatting on shows so nobody else can have them, and remind you that you could watch them in decent quality if only you weren't such a cheapskate and would subscribe to full Sky.
I mean, doesn't Netflix also charge extra for 1080p? Also I'm not a massive fan of Now, I only get it when there's a show I really want to watch on it.
Netflix also won’t serve 1080p if you are on PC. Even though you have specifically paid for 1080p or higher.
Additionally, even though Fox sold their shares in Sky years ago, I still can’t divest them in my head from the Murdoch empire.
