So how many commenters on this thread actually experienced the issues with Spark that are being widely discussed?

Really interested to know, as more and more seem to be confirming they had no issues at all. 

I just think that streaming live sport in NZ is just not going to provide the perfect experience. 

This is a phenomenon I’ve noticed where a new thing comes along and suddenly people start looking at the current thing with rose tinted glasses. Sky is so far from perfect, yet spark sport has to deliver a perfect experience otherwise it’s considered a complete failure. 

It happened with uber too, a lot of issues people complained about are also issues with Taxis. Lime Scooters where people (usually drunk) occasionally get injured, also happens with other forms of transport like bikes and skateboards and cars. But people are used to these things, so it doesn’t get considered.
