If it comes to the XBox One then I'm considering cancelling my DSTV subscription. I only had it for the sport and with our sport being so crappy, well it seems like the way to go.Originally Posted by RyanBrothwell
I recently got details of my parents DSTV online, so now I can stream sport as well. I'm going to cancel DSTV and just get more internetz for all the streaming. Hopefully Showmax comes to Xbox One shortly, then I'll get that. Plus I have Netflix. Show all in all entertainment will be sorted, and I would officially have cut the cord, so to speak
Do you have the Netflix with the South African content or the US content? Also, are you happy with it?
I have the South African Netflix only. Currently I haven't even watched a 100th of the content on it, so I am more than happy with it. Once the Showmax app is available on Xbox, I'll get that as well, and cancel my DSTV, because I can stream sport using my parents account. The thing about my requirements is that I'm not really watching any particular series right now. In fact, I haven't followed a series in a very long time, so what Netflix SA and Showmax has to offer more than caters for my needs of entertainment. The same cannot be said for everyone though, as I know many people needs to have access to the latest series as they release for some reason. My viewing habits have changed considerably, and I consume more Youtube content than any other platform. The only compromise I have is that I need to have sport as I cannot live without my sport. The rest I am not bothered with at all.
Thanks. I'm considering dropping sport completely. I love rugby but the political interference is spoiling everything for me. There are some shows that I watch new on DSTV like Game of Thrones and Gotham but I mean I can always watch them later. There are so many shows that I haven't watched that I know are worth watching. And my wifey watches a lot of older shows these days in any case.
Rugby takes up a lot of my time so if I drop it then I'll have more time to game and so forth. And it's not just watching rugby either. I watch too many games, bet on the games, read up about them, comment at sites, play and organise fantasy leagues. Hmmm I will think about it.
I will now be doing the same as you. Got details from my parents just now and it works well. So now I'm covered sport wise and since I've got a ShowMax subscription (thanks MyGaming!) I will just get a Netflix one and then it's bye bye DSTV subscription.
Now we just need ShowMax on the XBox One!
Pretty much exactly this, just my parents were too stingy
Yeah it works well, until it doesn't. I get the below message at the most unfortunate times (like right now). Still better than not having anything though.
If it keeps on not working by kickoff time, I'll be using another free streaming site for the rugby.
But what is your take on the service vs. Netflix, the only series i really would have wished to be on netflix is GoT (I believe it is on showmax though)
