Netflix

Zeus28

Hello. Does Netflix have any sport on it ? For example the barclays premier league or even the ATP Men's Tennis Tour ? Or is it just television programmes and movies ? I am pretty keen on sport so what kind of service would be best for that ?

How much is nowtv from sky ?

The box is £9.99 but you then have to buy passes to get access to Sky Sports. I got one recently so I could watch the Ryder Cup, a 1 week pass was £10.99. Not sure whether you can buy longer term options if you want to watch regularly.

You can get a Now TV box with a couple of sports day passes thrown in. They were recently on offer in PC World/Tesco/Asda/Argos so worth keeping an eye out for deals. It works out cheaper than buying the box and passes separately.

I opted for the movie pack though as you get more for your money.

Netflix has more for movies and tv series but I prefer my Now TV box as Sky seems to update their movie list more often.

Yes, I kept to the basics in my post but I also got the movie pack for the same reason - and because I wanted to watch golf for 3 days the 1 week sport pass was better value.
