Yes, but it is a difficult question to answer, a very general, sweeping question, not really a simple one. I don't condone the tone of the replies, but what do you mean by "good channels" - could possibly be different to everyone else?
A simple search of what is available under each pass will give you an idea of what is available (but up to you whether they're good). However, if you had a more specific emphasis to your question, such as how frequently they update new movies or shows, or how long they remain available, you'd probably get a more helpful answer.
I only have used the movies and find it good, as was on the initial free trial and then offered a cheap monthly fee for several months when I went to cancel. Although sometimes it can be frustrating as not all related movies always available, e.g. second Jack Reacher recently added, but I haven't seen the first one and that's not currently available.

Do forgive us please, the correct answer is Entertainment. Sorry, I meant Movies.

You can add the Passes to any NowTV account, they normally expire around 6 to12 months of release, if they do expire a quick chat with NowTV should sort it.
Dont bother selling the Passes on the Bay, too many Scammers now will activate them then report to eBay they dont work and get refunded, and theres nothing you can do about it.

Do you have to use the passes on the box? I have no use for the box but would like to use the pass on my BT box.

You should be able to use the pass on your current account with NOW TV.

You maybe aware of this but I tried accessing NowTV from a BT dtr-t2100 box and found out it only supported the Movies pack. Something to do with Sky not being happy about how much they have to be on the platform. So ok if you want to watch the movie pack.

Has anyone bought one of these?
Does anyone know how long before the expiry dates on the pass?

I picked up a 4 month kids pass yesterday for £15 in tesco. Had movie and entertainment packaging for same price. Also on direct

That's £15 for a 3 month Entertainment pass or a 2 month Sky Cinema pass - this deal is better, although they've now run out of Entertainment bundles.

Which ones better? The movies pass or the entertainment pass?

Well if you want to watch movies then the Movies Pass is better. And if you want to watch entertainment tv channels then the Entertainment Pass is better, only you know what you'd prefer to watch.

I prefer the Entertainment pass, although I usually try and obtain a movie pass around Christmas when the big movies are released. There's a lot of box sets which you can binge watch.

Personally if choosing I'd go for Entertainment as that gives you access to Sky Atlantic. So much good stuff on there and the new series of Game of Thrones in July.

The Movies Pass for:
All Sky Cinema films on demand
All Sky Cinema linear (live) channels
The Entertainment Pass for:
Hundreds of TV show box sets to watch on demand
11 linear TV channels to watch, including GOLD, Sky 1, Sky Atlantic, Comedy Central and Discovery.
Personally each streaming provider has its merits and downfalls.
I have all of them; and enjoy the content offered by both Amazon Prime and Netflix on my Fire TV Stick, as well as the predominantly Sky-exclusive content the Now TV Box offers.
I personally find the interface of the Now TV Box better than the Fire TV Stick, however it must be said that the Fire TV Stick does far more (it's essentially running a customised version of Android so runs a lot of Android apps from the Amazon App Store).
