    @ump21 @MWL152 Get foxtel. No issues whatsoever plus heaps of other channels.

    @tresantes Not to mention it wasn't even 1080p and had some kind of anti-piracy black strip running up one side. It led to a great article in one of the papers: "Australia doesn't have a piracy problem. Australia has a Foxtel problem".

    @FIAWEC @beINSPORTSASIA thatd be right Foxtel ditched its BEIN sports channel partnership a few years back now i gotta shell out for them on top of everything life sucks being a poor schmuck on DSP😕

    @TheBackPocketAU I don’t have my iPad charged very often these days but regularly watch VFL & footy (Foxtel Go) on my iphone if I’m trying to multitask. This includes watching 2024 Swans v Suns W final at a Motley Crue/Def Leppard concert. Never had any issues. Wishing your dad a quick recovery.

    @taximalsVT Foxtel was ****, and when Telstra first Introduced the High speed net, It really was Super fast high speed net for the first few months.. We got heaps. But they realised this, and all ISP's have been throttling the **** out of it every since.

    @matt__nicholls Perhaps DAZN's strategy is just to run out the existing contracts while DAZN pockets the subscription and advertising revenue, then eventually shut Kayo/ Foxtel down.

    @tresantes omg this reminds me of how for like 2 years my dad would pay for foxtel specifically when game of thrones was airing and then cancel it until eventually he gave up and started pirating it 😭

    mark macca 🐅🐅🏆 (@mcdonellaussie) reported

    @Timrides1966 @LaurenHeraldSun Research DAZN some more. They have a DAZN bet app OS incorporating I believe their streaming service & gambling in the same place. I expect to see a future where Foxtel only does sports. You may (depending on the Govt at the time) be able to bet on sports via the Kayo Fox app.

    Why the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.

    @krzyasf4u @Vin_cent00 Nah just never watched this. I was a Ben 10 kid back in the day plus only my Grandma had Foxtel so I had no access to this show

    @FOXTEL_Help hello there seems to be some issues with the paramount + app when trying to begin an episode of Ghosts (US version) it gets stuck after the preview has finished and as well if you skip the previews, not sure if it occurs with other show or not, please 🙏

    @MikeCarlton01 Well the Israelis having a problem Bibi promised Don he gets Gaza they get the West Bank But they need the USA to take the hard hits for them. So now it storming the beaches as a ex foxtel sports commentator decided to throw the Geneva Convention in the bin as to restrictive.

    @Telstra New NBN, wanted Foxtel, bought Fetch. But Fetch can’t get Foxtel, can’t cancel, no refund no return, throw the Fetch box in the bin, or they said “they would recycle it responsibly”. Now I want some real science, an energy balance not virtue signalling .

    Greg Swann should come out in this AFL360 interview and say the biggest issue of the week wasnt the umpiring. It was the coverage of Anzac Day with no crowd noise from Foxtel. #AFL #AFL360

    @Xenosmilus4 @MisanthropeGirl Presumably you can stream to a Sky box as well as get satellite, but can you get it to use only as a streaming set top box? The equivalent here, Foxtel, just has an app for people who don’t want the satellite service, which means using a Firestick, Apple TV or the like.
