I thought it was a really good epiosde, bit of a weird season all in all but there were some pretty cool developments in this one. All the characters meeting each other in the dragonpit, I was flat out trying to think who had what history with who haha.
Littlefinger getting his was great, and ditto the end with the Dragon just ruining that part of the wall was obviously crazy.

The meet up in the dragon pit was cool, just sucks Bronn had to leave cause Lena Headley (Cersei) doesn't want to be in any scenes with him cause they had a nasty breakup IRL

So my mate has bought some box that works via WiFi you can get TV channels from other countries on. It's like $80usd so like $120nzd for a year and there's 322 channels, it's got like ESPN US, ESPN2 US, NBA tv, NFL channel, Fox Sports 1-5 and also Sky Sports UK 1-5, Setanta Sports, and a whole shitload of other stuff, like HBO, various movie channels, History channel, Nat Geo, cartoons etc etc
I don't think he's actually paid the money yet cause I didn't wanna be the one to tell him to pay, if it wasn't gonna work. But a guy that comes into his work has one and that's what he uses and it works fine.
Has anyone else got a similar thing? Looks like we can get rid of expensive Sky if it actually works. Will just be a matter of finding what channel plays the NRL, All Blacks etc. I'm pretty stoked about it for American sports wise. If it works I'll probably get one myself. The box itself is around $200 I think

Interesting, I assume this isn't considered.......legal? Haha. When you find out/get all the details let us know, can always have more easy access to US Sports  |

Nah its not technically legal :lol:
I'll let ya know what happens when he signs up for the "package" The free channels looked all good, there's just nothing on them worth watching. ESPN was one of them though and had the tennis on it today when I checked

Well it works alright. Currently watching Man City vs Liverpool on Sky Sports. Its not quite HD but I think thats connection based.
It doesn't have the network that shows NRL in the UK, but the rugby tests were on Setanta.
Also can confirm NFL network and ESPN work. No ESPN2. NBA tv I think works, it was ads but they were American and basketball related
Will check out more of the channels tomorrow

It does say like Sky Sports HD for the HD channels but most dont say that. A couple are H265 which I think is 4k?? (We have 4k tvs). When you open the channel it says at the top like 1080 x 768 etc but yeah I guess it depends on the strength of the feed and your connection. A couple of the HD movie channels were crystal clear picture you wouldnt even know it was a stream. The NFL network one was pretty good. The quality is certainly not unwatchable anyway I would relate it to downloading the TV-SD files from a torrent site. But yeah some of the channels look amazingly clear. It also may work better if you can ethernet straight into the back rather than wifi

Search for Kodi Box on Trade Me, or can install it on PC and find the right add-ons.
