I definietely read there will be Fox 1-5, Fox Footy and Fox Sports news, plus further development of the red button function. It said there will be 7 sports channels.Quote:

Says 4 and 5 in HD
Fox Sports News long overdue for the HD treatment. Thankfully they are doing something about it
IQ3 out before year's end apparently, which will incorporate FTA channels (via the antenna as you might already use, as seen in Austar's last STU), ability to record 3x live programs whilst watching a 4th, bigger capacity.
A few changes to the channel packaging (Platinum subscribers get 2x free Box Office films per month), and also a BoxSets feature, basically a library of select shows (Sopranos, Girls etc.) available to download via internet-connected STU
Also price drop and better organisation of packages and add ons. Will still end up costing me $100 a month tho
Details on price drop? :o
25% discount on top of new price for me, whoo.
*edit*
Just read a release in work email. Whoo.
Jess Yates in HD.Quote:

Bit of smoke and mirrors I reckon. I got the idea that SPEED (and possible Eurosport?) was being moved to Fox Sports 4 and 5.Quote:

The official spin was that you'll get more content without having to ask (details unknown), but I'm pretty sure they'll package it is someway to make it "difficult" to reduce your monthly spend if you do ask.
I believe Speed & Fuel programming will move to the new FoxSports 4&5 channels. Eurosport is going HD.Quote:

Bring on Netflix I say about time the monopoly of Murdoch got a rattle.
Quiet weekend in. Finished off Treme, season 1 of Orange is the New Black and did a bit of Orphan Black as well.

Foxtel’s sports package will cost $25 in addition to the basic $25 package, meaning an overall drop of about $20 to $25 for current sports customers.

Watched the last episode of Ray Donovan last night great finish. Interesting to see what happens next season. Also watch the new Walking Dead last night. Holy shit it was good. Should be a great season.
Ray Donovan was awesome. Gotham is 3 eps in and it amazeballs, 2nd episode of Flash is out today looking forward to watching that tonight.
Anyone kept up with Brooklyn Nine-Nine?
I basically worship Andy Samberg, I love nearly everything he does, but I was worried this show would be too over-the-top Samberg. But IMO they've got it perfect, and it's quick becoming one of my favourite shows.
The most recent episode was hilarious - the relationship between Peralta and the Captain is getting so, so good!
The show would be nothing without Braugher.
He's one of the bestQuote:

He's one of the best because of his history as one of the best TV police detectives many moons ago.Quote:

Thought they only made one season but just found a second! So that's 26 episodes! Great show for the whole family.
How good is the box set channel on fox. Have been getting into dexter lately. So good watching it back to back. Up to season 5 at the moment.
Love the show. Let me know what you think of how they finish the series!
Did anybody appreciate it? Absolute rubbish, but the last 2 seasons were trending that way IMHOQuote:

Anyone subscribed to that? Or anyone know of plans for it to be shown on TV?
Haven't watched any dexter but did finish off True Blood. That was also a shit ending.Quote:

So Netflix is due to launch March31 in Australia (I know you can already get it through service that remove geo-block).
What I want to know is how many people think this will change their viewing habits?
I know for me I already watch more of ABC iView, SBS OnDemand, BeIn Sports, iTunes Rentals.... and then the other channels if they are showing something that I can't rent from iTunes.
So for me I suppose this just opens up a whole range of new content for $10 a month that I wouldn't already have. While the Australian version will lack some big titles due to exclusivity agreements here in Aus (Orange is the New Black is the big one in this list, others like Game of Thrones and other large scale HBO titles will be included), I still think this is going to help progress the change in my TV viewing habits, and I probably will stop watching ten, nine, seven completely.
I have netflix over here in switzerland launched about 5 months ago... slow start but now getting alot more content... the old geoblock and saying in USA or the UK is really good (until i guess that catch up on it and yeah....)
crazy the difference in the content re uk and usa... yeah the us has the most contents generally speaking, the uk version has say alot of good british stuff the us doesnt so thats always worth a shout...
In my WG we have a tv but the system here you have to pay for tv in anycase and we havent as we wouldnt watch much normal tv anyways... mostly streaming online on various sites (not illegal here) and now netflix has added another better quaility dimension....
Better Call Saul, i can watch on netflix, watched first 2 episodes and i like it.... Its not breaking bad and its not marketed as such...
Anyone watch the Americans? spy series?
