For a limited time only, Now TV will be offering a 40% discount on its £24.99 movies, entertainment and sport box bundles. The offer applies to new customers and will run over the Black Friday weekend – from Friday 27 November until Monday 30 November.
Customers can choose from three bundles, each one includes a Now TV box (worth £14.99) and free passes to either Sky Movies, Sky Entertainment or Sky Sports channels on a monthly or daily basis.
The Now TV box gives you access to hundreds of hours of Sky programming, without a subscription. To watch Sky content, you'll need to purchase one of three Now TV passes focused around movies, sports and entertainment. After purchasing a pass you'll need to plug the box into your TV using the supplied HDMI cable and wirelessly connect it to your broadband.
The £24.99 movies bundle includes a two month pass to Sky Movies channels. With a huge selection of titles on offer at any time, Sky Movies showcases some of the latest releases along with hundreds of other films to suit all the family. All eleven Sky Movies channels are available through Now TV including Sky Movies Family, Sky Movies Premiere and Sky Movies Comedy.
With the £24.99 entertainment bundle you’ll get three months access to Sky 1, Sky Living, Fox, Comedy Central, MTV, Gold, Sky Artist 1 and the Disney Channel. Now TV is also the only way to watch Sky Atlantic without a Sky TV subscription.
The Sky Movies and Entertainment Passes will renew each month until you cancel, which you can do at any time.
The £24.99 sports bundle lets you watch all seven Sky Sports channels including Sky Sports News HQ, Sky Sports 1 and Sky Sports F1 for two separate 24-hour periods. So you only pay for the sports news and coverage you want to watch.
Each time you log into the service, you’ll be notified of time remaining on your pass and if you're watching sports content, you’ll have the option to purchase and activate a new pass.
In addition to passes, you can use the Now TV box to download apps. You can also use it to turn your TV into a smart TV and access sites like Facebook, Spotify and BBC iPlayer.

Apart from 1080p support rather than 720p seems different to me unless your stuck in 2008?

Since the last update to iPlayer, it's become a little bit sluggish and prone to locking up. The other services are still fine though. I'm going to get the new one, especially with 40% off, then save the entertainment pass for Game of Thrones.

slightly better for Plex with the 1080p support but no difference if only using for now TV. might grab a couple to replace my old white ones as they are used more for Plex.

Heard briefly about these, legal? Reliable? Decent quality?
And future proof or likely to be defunct in a few weeks/months
If all positive any recommendation where to purchase from

Roku BBC iPlayer is way better than the Android version. Also no Now TV app on Amazon so don't get all thw content.

Two words - dodgy piracy! Pay for content rather than stealing.

Seems a lot more responsive to me, especially noticeable on iPlayer. The improved Wi-Fi probably helps a lot as well, haven't had any problems on the new box.

It says for new customers only but that seems odd, any ideas?

Great deal - heated :smiley:
Gigabit and FullHD make it better for Plex and the catch-up services.
