I do think sky have a cheek offering this. Surely it should be at no additional cost for sky world customers, along with a good marketing campaign they would steel plenty from VM.

Re: Sky unveils a new subscription service - Sky Go Extra
I think this is a great service. Just think of what I am now able to do
- Use my 27" iMac as a second, almost multiroom, receiver to allow the viewing of sports, movies etc.
- Use my MacBook Pro to watch movies, sports etc in the garden and work. It's also good for viewing when visiting friends and family who don't have sky.
- While away in my motorhome I can watch sky on my iPhone using 3G (I have unlimited data).
- Out and about I can use iPad to watch sky while having coffee.

Sky unveils a new subscription service - Sky Go Extra
As I said earlier in the thread, while it's not for me I can see this being a serious alternative to multi-room for some people and may (dare I say it?), even be considered good value.

Re: Sky unveils a new subscription service - Sky Go Extra
Many have already been using it this way, for free.
The changes mean that whilst 4 devices can now be used, you are still limited to using only two devices for live content at a time, but there is nothing stopping you from downloading content from the library. As much more is now available, I guess many will.

I didn't realise you could still only stream on 2 devices, that's just poor.

Re: Sky unveils a new subscription service - Sky Go Extra
Fully agree with this... very shoddy and I am surprised that the business case for doing this accommodated for the risk of frustrating users who already pay over £100 a month to sky and will consider if they are still getting value for money.
The fact they have added a couple of devices means very little and should just be part of an improving service. To remove a service that I have had for years and ask me to pay extra to get it back is poor to say the least.
