Ditching Sky

Ok, so I cancelled Sky on Saturday as my half-price deal has ended - told them if they offered me it at half-price again it wouldn't be good enough as there's uncertainty over my job (which is true). So they offered me 40% off d'oh. I know they'll be back on to me in the coming days and weeks and offering me better discounts but I'm going to stand firm - if they give me an outstanding offer such as 70% off I'll consider it but otherwise I'm in the market for an alternative. I don't know much about this kind of thing but a guy at work had what I think was a zgemma style box installed for a £160 one-off fee plus an IPTV annual subscription for £70 from the same guy. Trouble is, a lot of the channels have gone of late as stated on here and he has to rely on the IPTV instead. No way I'm going to get a stand alone IPTV sub for £70 per annum off the bloke who supplied both his zgemma and IPTV if I don't take up the zgemma option though. How much can I expect to pay for a monthly IPTV sub, and can anyone recommend someone with a decent rep via PM of course? Also, how do I set it up? I've got one of those android boxes and a Samsung Smart TV - can I do it through either of those?

Depends what you watch; are you using it just for sports mate or other stuff like nat Geo and the like? :)

Sports, Sky Atlantic, FOX, Crime & Investigation, movies, so pretty much a cross section of everything mate

Okay you might be best off getting a dedicated IPTV box like a mag 254 or a dreamlink box, this is an invaluable resource I have found when it comes to IPTV:

You might be best off getting an IPTV sub for general TV watching and then maybe sportsmania or smoothstreams as a backup for sports, as it's not unknown for providers to struggle during big events boss :)
