I have Kayo on my iPad and laptop and watch it on those. If I want it on the big screen, a HDMI cable hooks up. Best of both worlds.

Yep, I've got Fetch, Netflix, plus Optus sport, add in Kayo and its streets ahead with channel selection and price. Foxtel are losing millions a year and you can see why.

What's the quality of Optus and Kayo sport like Baz? I've got a samsung 4k ultra hd tv Foxtel HD is superior to free to air HD on the Foxtel iQ 3.i think the Foxtel iQ 4 goes even better.

I'm big on quality when it comes to video definition. No point having an ultra hd tv if you are only receiving standard definition. Shits me to tears when you set up series link on say AFL and WAFL then the bastards switch it to standard definition.

And when it comes to 4G internet I've found Telstra 4G is far superior to Optus and Vodafone. At least twice as fast.

The picture quality from Optus via NBN is absolutely outstanding, I was watching a replay of Celtic v Lazio only last night and just could not believe how good it was.

Kayo is close but probably not quite as good as Optus. Tbh I can't really see much diff with FTA and Fox HD (rubbish in my view) , but when it comes to Optus its markedly superior.

Did you have the iQ 2, 3 or 4 Baz? You need the iQ3 to get full HD. I think the iQ4 is Ultra HD.

Yep iQ3

Thats another thing with Foxtel they have all these BS levels of broadcast quality, with Optus you get the best you can as standard across the board and its constantly updating at no extra cost.

Apparently Kayo is now on 1080p Optus in on 720p moving to 4k soon.

I believe that you can get Fox Sports HD. Extra $10 per month.

Yep thats how bad they are, they actually charge extra for what FTA and everyone else just gives you as standard.
