Re: Streaming services news, offers and general chit chat

Can you two stop derailing this thread, information etc is getting lost in your constant back and forth childish bickering.
You'll both never see eye to eye so just pop each other on ignore and let the rest of us enjoy the thread.

I've invited OB to do so on many, many occasions to stop derailing the thread. However it doesn't happen. The extent to which he portrays his single minded view in perpetuity had permeated the forum to the extent that Chris designated a single thread for all of it.

lots of us have single minded views on this forum. In the main it is called an opinion. I will back up my opinion as plenty of others do. I do not like OBs (and a few others) posting style but there is nowhere in the rules where it says I have to hahaha

Re: Streaming services news, offers and general chit chat

l have no problems with other peoples opinions but one or 2 posters seem to take umbrage when they are faced with a differing viewpoint which disagrees with their own.

This.

I have just removed over a page of useless bickering.

Any more, and the rights of some to this topic will be removed, its like being in a school playground.

Re: Streaming services news, offers and general chit chat

Deep pockets DAZN big push for pay-per-view in the US looks to have been a disaster. Reports indicate that Saul “Canelo” Alvarez vs Gennady Golovkin did around 550 000 PPV buys at $85 a pop.

The third fight in a trilogy that saw 1.3 million and 1.1 million buys for the first two fights on HBO PPV.

With both fighters slated to have a guaranteed purse of $75m between them it looks like Len will be getting the chequebook out once again to fund his loss making operation.

It's logical given Sky Glass and the ability of BT TV's and VM's streamer to get a lot of the Freeview channels without an aerial.

Re: Streaming services news, offers and general chit chat

Credit to Onedirectional on dspy SKY moving to online only? "Sky has reportedly informed its trade suppliers that they will cease installing “new” satellite TV dishes on customer homes by the end of 2023, which is widely understood to reflect their increasing adoption of broadband internet based IPTV (video streaming etc.) delivery methods." https://www.ispreview.co.uk/index.ph...s-in-2023.html

Edit scrap that SKY have responded saying it's untrue.

Sky almost certainly wouldn’t want it out there so far in advance in case it impacts take up of existing services. The date is probably ambitious too.
