Y'know, I went to sign up for Apple TV last night and just wanted to check they still had it when Google showed me it was on Disney. Who said it was just for kids? I watched s3e1, where they find a dumpster baby.

Watch CODA on Apple. Great feel good movie.

I watched that episode last week. Bloody hilarious show.

The best thing about them is you can cancel at any time. So you can have one or two for a few months, watch some stuff and then swap them around for another one.

I pretty much have to have Disney+ (for my kids) and Kayo (for me) but the rest I can chop and change if need be.

I don’t though ‘cause I just have them all, except for Stan and Paramount+.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I switched Stan off when I finished with Better Call Saul and will get it back when the final season comes out. I can't convince any of my people to drop Binge/Netflix/Prime/Disney+

Obviously Kayo is going nowhere.

Finished Ozark now watching Inventing Anna. Early days but it has that little foul mouthed chick from Ozark as the lead and shes amazing. Fingers crossed.

I find the problem with streaming services is i can never find anything i want to watch. There are specific shows im interested in, but everything else is just a massive pile of shite to wade through

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Searching for stuff on the streaming platforms is pretty irritating, which is why I often don't bother and just stick on 9 Life, who are usually playing House Hunters. It's uncanny how often one partner wants to live in a dirt hut and their partner wants a slick highrise apartment.

My missus binged Inventing Anna last weekend. She is not one to ever binge a tv show or even pay much attention to what is going on. She normally watches tv whilst flicking through her phone.
She couldn’t take her eyes off the tv at all during that show and raved about it afterwards.

Im now afraid I’m going to watch it, not like it much and then have to pretend I loved it so as not to upset her.

My problem is I find so much stuff I want to watch on there but I don’t have much time during the day to watch many things. So I flick around trying to find something that will fit into the small amount of time I have and by the time I find something the time is gone.

I have all of the streaming services except Apple
It is a pain in the arse when you can't remember which platform a show you were watching is on.

Optus to begin charging phone customers for Premier League access

The move is likely to upset customers who joined Optus on the basis they could watch the English Premier League free of charge. They’ll now have to pay $6.99 per month - and non-customers will shell out almost four times that amount.

Ok so it seems the old foxtel box via satellite or cable is dead and they want you to buy a box that looks like appletv or even buy a TV for $2k.

Can you not already do what this device will do on devices that already exist (Amazon Firestick, Chromecast, etc.)?

IQ3s are only good for landfill.

I had a couple and they failed so they updated me to IQ4s and I asked how to return the faulty boxes and they just said to "dispose of the responsibly".
