Now TV lets purchase a pass at a monthly cost for Movies or Sports. Thats it. Nothing else. On top of that the prices are worse than moaning about Xbox Live. Monthly pass for Movies ( even if you already are a Sky customer ) is 15.99 GBP/ month. The sports is get this 9.99 GBP/day. Yes a day. I pay 30.00 GBP for SKy/month and get all what Now TV offers plus 100+ other channels. And get access via the Xbox 360 free. FREE. FFFFFRRRRREEEEEEE. All Channels on 360 freeeeeeee. Thats Live TV. Not Sports and movies that Sky offer. PS3 in UK does not have live TV. You can watch Live Sport for 9.99GBP/day and thats it. or catch up TV. And yes the library of HD films on PS3 is smaller than 360. Ironically as well All of Sony Pictures movies are available on 360 in full 1080p some with smartglass. PS3 is better recently with its new releases. But the back catalog of films misses alot that 360 has. |
Erm, it's not free. You have to pay for Xbox LIVE. But it is free to watch it through the Sky box you get for FREE with every monthy package. And the Sky box can actually record.
So, for the record the best option for each is:
Sky - Use the free box you get with the required monthy sub (360 makes you pay for LIVE and you can't record)
NOW TV - PS3 and 360 are equal
Freeview - PS3 with PlayTV lets you record and watch, no sub required (360 can't do anything with Freeview)
So in the UK, the PS3 is the better option for TV
