    Just had an email today from NowTV saying that ITV Player is coming soon. :cool:
  • I've not seen that e-mail but its good news for me as its one channel I can't watch at the moment, although do ITV do anything worth watching nowadays?

    Odd thing only. But as with 4oD and Demand 5, the adverts on ITV Player are rife which makes watching anything a right chore.

    No nothing worth watching, the good archive stuff is on ITV Encore.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    YouTube now on NowTV box. Good for watching full length movies and programmes. Been watching Wheeler Dealers this weekend. :D
  • Argos has two different Now Tv boxes for sale with included passes.

    The cheaper of the boxes is NTVEB1 at £12.50 with 4 months entertainment pass.

    The more expensive one is NTVEB3 at £19.99 for a 3 month pass.

    Now obviously the cheaper one is much better value however is there something to said for buying a newer model of the box which is what the more expensive one seems to be?
    :eek: - Just because I love this emoticon!

    Is it not just the same box, only you are getting more content in the included monthly pass.

    EDIT: Think the new box may have HD capability.

    Nope, the box has always been 720p - HD. Unless someone knows better, assume it's exactly the same device but with the different subscription models.
  • NowTV box is just a cut down Roku box so doubt there would be a newer/better version.

    Anyone got it?

    I currently pay £47pcm to virgin for telly and broadband. We mostly watch netflix and rarely actual telly, so am considering terminating my virgin tv contract, keeping broadband (takes payment down to £20 pcm) and getting Now TV instead.

    Is it reliable? easy to use? can anyone recommend it?
