Do you get any buffering at all? Rising tide can be good but usually there is some buffering and playing around trying to find the right stream.

Nope, no buffering. And there's no digging around trying to find the right stream, it has its own menu system. The movies come up with the film posters (all HD), the live TV stuff just comes up with the channels and an option to watch in HD or SD.

Never had one issue with it and not paid to watch any game or PPV event for about 2.5 years.

Fair play then. I had Kodi installed on a 1st gen Firestick a couple of years back and it was ok at first, but then turned to utter shite, spent longer trying to find a working stream than I did actually watching anything. I guess they've upped their game.

Yea I have the 4k one which runs much more smoothly.

I can honestly say the only issues I have is when my wifi plays up, but then I just connect to my neighbours* instead.

So BT ended up with ALL dead rubbers.

Who negotiates their games then.

Blimey. They have replaced the ESL quick.

Never heard of that one. FFS, how many more 'competitions' do they need (and the extra TV rights deals..)

They've been planning this 3rd tier competition for a few years.

They traditionally use up their picks early, leaving them to take Sky's scraps at the end of the season.

Makes sense given that they're a monthly subscription service. Gonna gain more subs from a top game in August than May...

Aren't Sky a monthly subscription service as well though ? ???

Sky always have the lions share of the PL games, the majority of the top picks, and the best time slots as they pay more (whereas BT also have Europe as a counterbalance to all that). I'm still surprised BT didn't have at least 1 of the games that had something riding on it though, albeit the dippers have all but secured the big one now.
