The idea of a VPN is privacy so if they are not providing that its misleading for starters

Nothing personal rumply but I find the irony thick in that we are discussing VPN in this thread in the first place to mislead GamePass to get a cheaper subscription.

Renewal email mentions app for smart tvs and ps4. I believes it when I sees it. How long have they been promising these apps?

No games on 7 and an app for Samsung smart TVs might actually be enough to convince me to sign up to Gamepass again

Not sure when it went live exactly but my LG has had it for awhile.

Other than that on the Xbawx or Chromecast was working great.

Did 7 lose the rights?

aussiedude thinks they might have based on what his Foxtel guide says

Yeah tge email said Samsung and LG smart tvs. The LG one must be live. Just checked my samsung and nothing comes up.
No xbox for me just PS4.

Looks like Indonesia. Egypt etc will be the cheapest going by that chart posted earlier in the thread

what a bunch of ******* tight asses you lot are

****ing oath - $300 or $200, if you're happy to piss away $100 for no good reason, more power to you.

I've paid full tote odds the last 2 seasons for a service that I would now struggle to live without BUT it is still not in HD. There's a huge difference between 720p & 1080p when it comes to sport & for the price they charge, it's simply not good enough anymore.

Are you saying it’s not even in HD? It was 3 years ago when I last had it.

The picture is ok & better than no picture at all but when you have the same game on ESPN on one TV & the Gamepass stream on another, the difference is very noticeable.

So is the 30 second delay.

I tried watching ESPN redZone & a game live on GP a few times before I got burned

Rude isnt it?

Just out of interest I've fired up the android app & am chrome casting the Pats KC Champ game & it looks pretty good. Previously Ive watched through the xbox app & I reckon it looks better than that did. But still not as good as ESPN etc.

Go KC...

Just gone to resubscribe. Got two plans - $274.99 plan and the 'free' plan. What the hell does the free plan get you? Some NFL network talk show?

free plan is just weekly highlights of games and NFLN.
paid plan is everything.

**** just read the email that I will auto renew sometime this week. Guess I just have to update my app. $199.99 US. Cheaper to cancel and resubscribe.

fu** just read the email that I will auto renew sometime this week. Guess I just have to update my app. $199.99 US. Cheaper to cancel and resubscribe.

auto-renew is satan himself.
i unticked that option last year, and yet i found out just a couple weeks ago that i still ended up with a full gamepass $300 sub all last year and didn't realize it. i had gone and paid $50 usd for another service S4U last year in lieu of giving up gamepass. what a mess.

my 2018 gamepass is set to finish in a few days so i will actually watch to see if i somehow still get auto-sub'd or not.

Some locations around the world don't get 1080p tho, and some features are missing like ALL-22 etc.
