A comment on Netflix expected to spend over $6B on original and acquired programming in 2017. Parent comment
- BBC iPlayer is outstanding
- ITV player is terrible, I have to disable my ad blocker and then watch the opening ads a few times before it loads. Also needs silverlight..
- Amazon iirc will only play HD in some browsers, I can't remember if it needs any plugin. Also they have ads.. In a prime only thing.
- Sky Player (they have HBO :/) is terrible to navigate, silverlight, even more ads than ITV, low quality, awful.
Netflix isn't perfect but honestly their competitors are mostly atrocious.
