Netflix and Stan are each $15/month for Full HD with all programs on up to 4 devices.
If Foxtel Now offer just the Sports package for $15/month I'd sign up tomorrow, but they tag it onto the basic packages. That's "No Deal" for me at that price!
The stupid thing is, from talking to people at the local club and pub. If Foxtel Now just offered the Sports Package a sh1te load more people would be subscribers. We did a quick pop survey among our local group and if Foxtel Now was just $15/month for sport they would pick up 400% more subscribers. I know that was only a couple of dozen people, but it shows how stupid or greedy marketers can be! Perhaps they cannot justify the back-end upgrades required to deliver the service!
Foxtels biggest problem is the way they refuse to tailor packages to people.
If you want 1 channel, you have to buy that pack. You can't buy the channel individually.
If you want a pack, you have to 'add-on' to the basic pack.
Look, i've got foxtel (Basic+sports) and if there was an alternative way to view those sports (AFL, NFL, F1 specifically) then i'd sign up and ditch foxtel straight away.
But, there isn't.
