    I know mate. I didn't realize how much I was missing out on until I changed over to Android.

    I've never heard of that. Is it better than Showbox ?

    An iPad isn't Android though. You will get nowt because Apple limits your experience for their own profit.

    I find it a nightmare trying to stream sport on my IPAD....it's just one flash download after another. Don't think I've ever watched a game this way <frustrated>

    I've just had a free month's trial of Netflix....will sign up for a few months at £8.99 a month for four devices.....everyone in the house is delighted, they can all watch it on their own device in separate rooms :laugh:

    I think it is, it has a better interface and more user friendly when searching for a film.

    I've been using an android box since August and they are pretty good for some things but some of the sport streaming on them is pretty unreliable (just the same as streaming from free sites on the internet tbh). But for streaming films and TV series its absolutely brilliant(genesis is the best add on out there for it), the live tv apps on them are a bit of a nightmare I've found they work for a while and then break meaning that you have to **** about on the internet to find out how to fix it, personally I think it's more hassle than it's worth when you can stream any tv show you like after its been aired.

    So far as streaming the sports is concerned if you find a decent stream it's like watching skysports but I've found it quite hit and miss you can always find a stream but sometimes it's very fuzzy or keeps sticking, that started to drive me crazy so I ended up signing up to a £6 a month streaming site which is more reliable. one of the lads on here put me onto this site which gets updated with how to download all of the latest updates there's a lot of computer nerd stuff on there but some of it's helpful.

    Are these things wireless then? I might get one for the third bedroom that has no TV jack.

    I love my Sky TV I don't think I'll ever get rid of it.
