£50 a year for everything or a binding 2 year contract of over £100 a month with Sky for less channels?

I’ll take my chances thanks

Got one set up in the summer, paying €120/year for 6000+ channels and 5000+ series and 10000+ movies, which are updated weekly. My parents are paying something like €130/month for their Sky. It’s a no brainer.

You can get thrown in prison for saying mean words now, let alone robbing multi billion pound tv companies of a few quid.

You rotter! … oops 👮🏻‍♀️

I do pay for Sky...£1200 a year which seems a lot because it is...but I feel I can afford it, and we get the whole UHD full surround sound package in two rooms, loads of recording space as we don't watch adverts in our house.

Plus Sky go on the phone free spotify and Netflix

I have got a small reciever gadget that runs Plex & some other stuff that shows Apple TV etc

I'm actually amazed at the amount of people who can & do stream illegally & fair play if you do but it's time the authorities clamped down on it.

We pay 160 a month. Sky and BT sports, fastest broadband and have 4 boxes in different rooms. Also Netflix ect, and sky cinema.

Me and the wife pretty much work at home so need the high speed internet.

Tbf we never have any issues with the Sky service.

No, wrong. It’s time that 3pm football was available to watch for the general public. Get rid of the blackouts, get rid of the illegal streaming network.

You’re getting ripped off Pranks. We pay £100 for the same package through Virgin, and 500mbs internet.

I just argued with the virgin media sales guy for 2 hours (you message them over WhatsApp these days) and I got that package down to £80 a month just by using an offer Sky had given me. Virgin's first offer was a worse package for £130. So managed to get the best package for the lowest price possible.

I get TNT Sports for free with my £50 a month phone deal and I pay £20 a month for NowTV. Sometimes I pay £8.99 a month for Amazon Prime.

Money must be made and protected.

That statement explains everything in the OP.

“Seems very harsh to me. The government are releasing people who have been sentenced in prison for violent offences and then we’re putting people like this guy in prison for 3 years for illegally streaming football matches.”

That’s because the criminal justice system is designed to protect capital interests above the safety and wellbeing of the proletariat.

we're reviewing after Christmas mate

£74 with Virgin for 1gb broadband, all the channels and free calls on a weekend, although we don't have a phone connected.

IPTV subscription for £40 for the year for 3pm kickoffs and boxing PPV. There's no such thing as a dodgy Firestick by the way, you pay for a subscription so that your account gets access to the IPTV server and you access this through an app. Firestick is just one of the methods use to install the app but this can be on anything really. I did it for a couple of years myself but then people kept getting cheaper and cheaper when I was charging £100 for the year, I heard of people doing it for £20 and £30. Not only that but the hassle from people who don't have a clue what their doing. Regularly I'd get calls saying my Firestick isn't working. I'd say contact Amazon then, why are you contacting me? They'd say but I didn't pay Amazon I paid you. I provided you a subscription not a device. Have you tried a different cable? But it's on. You told me it wasn't working? It's working but no football showing. So you mean the app isn't working? Yes. Did you click refresh like I've told you 20m times? No. OK try that. Oh its working now. Great. Bye.

£10 a month for a Peacock subscription for access to every PL game and around £8 for a VPN to enable me to access it. You can get a free one but I already use it for other things. Just wanted to test this out as want to drop the IPTV altogether. I only use it for football so if I can get that for £10 a month I'm fine with that.

I pay for a Sky package without sport, AppleTV, Prime, Netflix and Disney.

I also pay for a stick with no guilt whatsoever. I put plenty of legitimate money into the industry.

Well actually they're not putting people in prison for streaming illegal football matches. That's just the headlines that people dive into without looking into things, which is how the world has gone. People will believe anything nowadays with no knowledge on the subject and no attempt to gain any.

The guy is getting prison for receiving and sharing multiple services from around the world from paid networks, being part of a global network himself whereby these criminals are sharing their particular countries services with others from around the world which is then uploaded to servers and offered to others for a knockdown price, costing companies untold amounts of money. In otherworld they're stealing something and selling it for a knockdown price as it's stolen.

Some people try to justify this by saying these companies already have a lot of money and their prices are too high. Well you wouldn't walk into the high street and pick up a Louis Vuitton bag worth £2000 and then go sell it to somebody for £40 and once caught say but it was too expensive and Louis Vuitton is minted.

Stealing is stealing whether it's done physically or digitally.

Why pay for VPN/peacock if you have IPTV?

Blackout rule should probably be scrapped to be honest.

How many people are out there going to lower and non-league games solely because their prem club isn't on the tele, especially given streams now exist so if you really want to watch your prem team you can.

Someone tell me where to get IPTV

Yeah it should be scrapped. Although I imagine there would be a huge backlash from the EFL/National League and the clubs in them.

No matter what anyone says, the quality of IPTV, isnt that good. Rather pay, to get the quality, and not be worried about looking at Phone, because your two minutes behind.

Its not a a good experience
