Sounds a big improvement, especially the new streaming service.
Streaming service still pricy though compared to Spark Sport etc.
Read about it here:
I don't understand why you are comparing the price?
2.5x the price of the nearest competitor is rather a lot.
not when there is over 2.5x the content...
But it’s still fair to compare price. 2.5x more expensive is a lot more expensive.
Spark sport probably has enough sports content for most people (particularly during EPL season), and is 2.5x cheaper than than sky’s repackaged fanpass.
Sky may have more content, but I don’t watch most of it. So why pay 50 when you can pay 20.
Realistically as subscriptions expire I’d probably switch between the services depending on what I want to watch. A bit like I do with Netflix and lightbox. But with those price points, I reckon I’d choose to subscribe to Spark more often than I’d choose to subscribe to sky’s service.
