Now Tv...any good?

We can't make up our minds between, Amazon, Netflix or now. I don't know a lot about Now...anyone use it?

Yes i've had it for a few months and really like it. I have the entertainment package and i did have the movies but have just cancelled it as i don't have time to watch them. You can start and cancel the service as and when you please as there is no contract. I've never had a problem accessing the service, it seems to run quite well. The only downside is that there are no subtitles and i have dodgy hearing.

They usually do a month's free trial so you can see if it's right for you or not. I tried the Movies for a while they have lots of newer stuff than Netflix.

We recently signed up to Now in order to watch Game of Thrones. Only to find it pretty much unwatchable! The sound is so awful when watching on an iPhone/ iPad...just unspeakably bad.

Their choice of programmes is excellent but they don't stream in HD, unlike Netflix and Amazon. Might not bother a lot of people but it does bother us, a lot. It's bizarre in this day and age, when people have come to expect better and better picture quality (Netflix even streaming some 4k progs) that Now would think they don't need to offer HD

I use AMAZON, now and Netflix. Mainly use NowTV for game of thrones. I have never had a problem with the sound but you don't seem to be able to use nowTV in a chrome browser but it works with Firefox and IE.
I suppose if you are just picking 1 it depends what you watch.
