It is not. Actually asked Foxtel this the other day, its not unmetered at all, even through people who subscribe through Telstra.
That's weird the guy installed my foxtel told me that it was unmetered with telstra.

That's a good question
...and it also goes around the other way.
I have unlimited download, but if I go to someone else's house where they have limited download.....do I the "break the Bank" if I use my iPad in his house?
Yes, Purchased the App coverage about 2 months ago

yes
Yes, you can have 2 devices logged in per foxtel subscription. Doesn't go far though if you have both an ipad and iphone logged in as that's your 2

Hmm. Maybe I should actually ask telstra then
Need to buy iPad... use parent's foxtel...
Anything you download through your foxtel box is unmetered on Telstra, like Catch Up TV.
The Foxtel Go app on iphone and ipad, it isn't.
The AFL app is unmetered through Telstra.

The afl app would be better if you want to watch games on your device as that is unmetered (since telstra own the AFL web media rights). Even if it does cost you an outlay to buy the app.

Is it games only? Or all the shows too like 360, Open Mike, etc?
If only Fox offered their streaming content to people overseas. They own the content so I see no reason why they couldn't do it. Sigh.

What if your brother lives overseas?
Nope, Foxtel go is included in the subscription. Its not unmetered though
What is the cost of streaming and if you have foxtel via telstra and your package is billed that way is it un metered? I have plenty of g bytes so it wouldnt make a diff anyway.
What if you access the internet via the wifi function using my telstra plan that has foxtel?
Yep, its unmetered if you are with Telstra bigpond, used the Foxtel GO app the whole night the boston bombings suspect was being chased (was watching fox news, sky news etc in bed) etc and it was all unmetered, B-E-A-UTIFUL!

Yeah Mobile Foxtel is still around and unmetered, and it works quite well, but it doesn't hold a candle to something like Foxtel Go.
Unconfirmed reports around the interwebz that the unmetered issue with Telstra on 3G/4G is under negotiation. Also that some have used it on WiFi or 3G and it has been unmetered.
your login can be linked to two devices at one time
i've been using foxtel go for EPL for a few months now, love it

This iDevice exclusivity bullshit is so out of touch with the way the smart phone use is trending, give us a paired release with Android you wangs.
