yes it does, but I'm not paying $80+ p/m for sky at home

It's actually $50 (min cost if you want Turbo) but that's still a lot if you only get it for 1 channel!

Car S.O.S last night Duke channel13 they did a Ford anglia. Bit of a rust bucket and reguired a bit of chassis rebuilding also they did a VW beetle, fiat 850, world war two willys jeep and a couple of others.

 

That Anglia was stunning if a bit riced out, format is more reality show with little bits of info thrown it, cool nonetheless

Anyone seen Edd China's new stuff since he ditched Wheeler Dealers?

I saw some coverage of the "split" but that was a while ago now and I've not heard/seen anything from either since. WD had gone to shite since it went to the States.

search for Edd China on youtube.  He's got a new show that appears to do all the stuff he said he didn't like about the new production company was doing to Wheeler Dealers!

yeah I was paying $60 with Soho (over Vodafone Cable)... then I figured I'd get over myself (after Netflix USA treated me like a non-customer), got a free AppleTV, added Netflix, and bingo $16 a month for the NZ service.  Bye bye Sky.  I saw a pamphlet in Noel Leeming today, Vodafone touting the great new service TV on demand with a box, but I think it's too little too late.

'SNIP!'

Vodafone guy collected my box, surfboard modem, and remote, today.  I'll have to figure out where I can get the Discovery Turbo programmes, and see the rest of 'Billions'.  My guilty pleasure:  Street Outlaws! 

[M3AN 4016]

Only one more ep of Billions this season... 

The only reason I have Sky is for Sports - it's just too difficult to find streams for all of the live sport I watch. And to be honest, Sky is good value in that regard.

Movies and TV shows are just a couple of clicks away to d/load. I'm glad I learnt how to use Usenet and IRC in the late 80's!

Pretty much the same. But i challenge the "Sky is good" part. I am seriously pissed that they are now dropping the ball with losing the likes of Rugby world cup to TVNZ where with them we will get limited games & inundated with adds to be able to pay for it!

For those who are all about the (Sky) sport: https://www.radionz.co.nz/news/business/358727/spark-customers-win-deal-on-sky-sports-coverage

I'm sure I can get the Discovery Turbo stuff online somewhere? Or find more YT channels.

Don't worry, Sky will have the World Cup too, mark my words.

Already Sky and Spark working together.

And Sky have just launched FanPass mobile, main sports channels for $16 / month, no contracts, max 6" screen (but you'll be able to get around that as long as you're not silly enough to use an Apple device).

I signed up for this mainly for the Fifa world cup seems to be all good so far but will wait until load on the network gets heavier. 

I have an app called TerrainiumTv which I use to stream movies tv shows act. Android only but with Chromecast support it's great

truth be told id get value out of the documentary channels too.

but the real cost is much higher. i am quite productive, but i would veg more if i had more programs to watch.

[Driftit 2078]

Just stream the World Cup for free.

A stream for any sport can be found for nothing on Reddit.  There is even a reddit motorsport streams sub.  Racing from all over the world.

Sky is about to be purchased by one or the other biggest c**ts in industry.  Fox or Comcast.  Both bidding for it.  (Excuse the language but they are both the ultimate forms of scum)
