Scott (Human) - 𐌃𐌏ᖇ𐌉乙乙𐌃𐌕 (@Dorizzdt) reported**** this, I'm going out today to spend $3k on a media setup. I'm going back to just pirating TV/Movies. It's not because I am not willing to pay, its I am tired of paying subscription services and having everything so fragmented and being Nickel and Dimed by the services. When we worked on HD Streaming in the 2000's we set the foundation up for the industry to make video possible more easier. Even back then convincing Hollywood / TV Networks to abandon physical media for streaming was a huge undertaking in itself. They just were ******* in contracts with the creators of content and couldn't find a way to make online work. Fast forward 20 years later and this is the **** we end up with. It literally is just easier to pirate than its to keep doing this. atm I pay for: HBO Max Stan FoxTel Primewire Paramount Netflix Disney+ BritTv (i forgot to cancel the trial fml) AppleTV+ Its about $160 a month AUD I can't find half the **** i want to watch and the stuff that I want to watch is full of ads, or you have to then pay extra ontop. I'm out. stfu ... I'ma use AI to setup a complete end to end media experience.

ClayChucky (@claychuckyclay) reportedGiven how much we pay for @Foxtel it would nice to see more flexibility like the US version. Why dont we have incar camera choice, maps, timing screens? Why do we get the bog standard international feed with crap biased Sky commentary? Upgrade please or give us @Apple @F1

Scrumblebum (@scrumblebum1) reportedMy god I thought Foxtel was bad till I joined @PrimeVideo . Fu king disaster company this one
-
Trev (@trevapchichi) reported@SoundingBoardEp @DrinkWiseAus For next years Hall of Fame, will Foxtel be asking Crown to serve meals on plastic plates? The sound of cutlery smacking crockery during Bill Walkers elevation was just horrible TV
-
Lexi (@baroque_doll) reportedWho keeps letting these stupid foxtel ***** have exclusive rights to ****, who ******** is paying these prices
-
K•A•N•E (@kanethesaint) reported@KobieThatcher I'm still unsure how they measure how many people watch it as I've never seen a survey for it. Free to Air over Antenna is receive only as is Foxtel over satellite. I don't know many that watch FTA via the app.

Andrew Bradley (@AndrewBradley33) reported@thesportingbase They @Foxtel will lose me as a customer, despite being one for many years.
-
Tanya (@wade396) reported@FOXTEL_Help please do not tell me you can’t answer me has I don’t have a picture like you did on Facebook. Spent 2 hrs with Tech support 35years customer cannot tape past the 29.6.26. Told someone more senior in tech would call today now nothing.
-
“Smash Her” (@dougjones90909) reported@NRLMedia What an awful outcome for fans. Higher prices. Still have to watch the biggest games on nine in their ****** “HD”. Games covered by nine still not in 4K on Foxtel. ******* pathetic. It’s 2026 FFS, not 1990.
-
Carl Raymond 🌞🌞🔋 (@CarlSparre) reported@ruicharadrius Wifi here is like wifi anywhere, afaik. Perhaps you mean bandwidth. For that problem blame the government that thought fibre to premises was overkill. Turnbull, under the thumb of Murdoch who was protecting Foxtel. We don’t hate Murdoch enough.
-
T Highgate (@THighgate11) reported@LeagueScenePod NRL won’t go for this. V’landys has said numorous times that he wants $4 billion for 5 years. This offer is $4 billion for 7 years which is worst than what the current AFL deal is. Foxtel needs this deal more than the NRL at this stage.
-
X- Y Bailey 🇦🇺🇳🇿 🇨🇦🇩🇪🇮🇹 (@Bailey92035278) reported@EdSaint61 After channel nine just cut NBN news channel 9 don’t deserve any right to NRL rights I hope channel 7 gets it and Foxtel stays too **** channel 9

bec s (@bec_8888) reportedJust lost the foxtel signal (must be lots of rain coming) lucky @abcsport working to listen to magic round games @QuentinHull @zanofc Billy Moore
-
wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported@WSWanderingEels My idea down the track is Saturday 930 nrl game (good for Perth) feeding directly into an earlier super league game. That would get them decent coin. Like when they go to 11 or 12 games. They can afford Foxtel so much more value down the track, afl can’t.
-
catherine (@CathP82) reported@lui_zacher The foxtel clock froze. The actual time clock was still counting down. So in the end it was explained last night of the coverage & no time was lost.
-
wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported@centralNRL He used to talk down the value of the nrl tv deal every time it was up for renewal when he had a job at Foxtel. Even they got sick of him
-
bndt (@banditkayfabe) reportedThe audio on Kayo sounds awful and hollow but the audio on Foxtel is ok. What is going on thought my TV was playing up #AFLTigersHawks
-
George Munro (@ornums53) reported@1116sen Because Ch7 "Allegedly" have the footy rights but have 4 less games than Foxtel. No footy on Sat's poor elderly that AFL don't get any Sat footy anymore G but what would you blokes care. Broadcaters fault. And camera work is pathetic. Game is in chaos. Poor Laura took the hit.
-
James Milton (@jformaldehydem) reported@mary_hail20316 @KirstiMiller30 So pirate it then. Binge and Foxtel are both Murdoch properties. **** Murdoch!
-
Mark Fawcett (@mfawcett1977) reported@Tuxy81 These streaming companies will never learn. Prices here in Australia are more than the Foxtel everybody replaced them with. Streaming was meant to be cheaper than cable, but here we are.
-
Darren Cope (@LandscopeInfo) reported@lui_zacher Lui pull the post down. It was a Foxtel error not a game day clock. ****
-
Jackie Chan (@JackieChan87805) reported@LeagueFreak If they lose the rights they're finished . the 4 billion they paid for foxtel sports next to worthless when more then half their subscribers move to the streaming service that has the NRL But... Stan & Paramount are serious in taking DAZN out of the Australian market
-
Sandy Lanceley (@sandylanceley) reported@ROBUNS @Channel9 @wwos There was some talk about that, but I haven’t seen confirmation. A big problem though is there’s limited space to broadcast a higher bitrate which Foxtel producing it couldn’t fix.
-
Arts Desire (@artsdesire) reported@LisaB_29 $350 is not bad compared to foxtel & Kayo.
-
wolvesjr34 (@wolvesjr34) reportedI legit think anyone who pays for Kayo is not very smart. Pay a little more and get access to so much more with Foxtel. Kayo is unreliable, and a rip off... legit the only streaming service I ever tried for one month and was like, nope, never again.
-
Stewart Noble (@Stewy_Noble) reportedYo Foxtel, every bloody time android updates you're way behind. Why am I paying a bill for a service I'm not receiving? I'm even on your beta test and you're still slow. I'm relying on your app on holiday ATM and nothing! #freebills @FOXTEL_Help
-
odd ✮⋆˙。・゜・ (@pusherll) reportedalso this was produced by the biggest australian television network yet it was no where to be found on streaming?? how does that work foxtel 🤨
-
GrumpyOldDad.bsky.social (@BjWittwer) reported@xskinn Save your sanity. Screw Rupert Murdoch. Cancel anything through Foxtel, especially the fictional program “Sky News”. If you want something more factual than Sky News, I recommend Nieghbours, Home & Away, Days of our Lives, & importantly, Bluey. #SaveOurABC #FuckBillionaires
-
Jonathan Wilson (@jfwfreo) reported@TV_Blackbox The only losers would be DAZN (who own Foxtel and Kayo) and Nine (who own Stan) although if Nine keeps FTA rights it wouldn't be quite so bad for them.
