Germans/Europeans might feel with me: I had the pleasure of using Sky to watch Game of Thrones and a few movies and it was the most abysmal experience I have ever had.
Your account is an email combined with a 4-digit NUMERIC-ONLY (!) "password" and once you are hyper-securely logged in the amount of usability pain a single piece of software can cause will immediately become apparent.
How can anything paid by a big corporation be anywhere near as bad as the Sky apps is completely beyond me.
Their iOS app is somewhat usable and I was happy I could just cast GoT using my Google Chrome until I noticed that casting can only be done in German. The English original version wasn't available for casting but perfectly accessible on PS4 app, Mac app and web app.
Thanks for the reminder to cancel the Sky Ticket subscription. I feel you. The most frustrating thing are their SmartTV and AppleTV apps. If you watched an episode or a movie you can't start it again because it will start, jump to the end and will either recommend to start the next episode (in the case of a show) or do nothing (in case of a movie).
You have to "reset" the content in you iOS app and can then watch it on your other devices. Sky is cancer.
Sky used to have a web client. Now you have to use their apps, even on the desktop, which come with a suite of monitoring services (Cisco Videoguard) to prevent people from streaming their content. On my Mac Mini the video player takes up easily 80-100% of the 6-core/12-threads i7.
It's almost unwatchable. Unfortuantely it's a requirement if you're into german soccer.
Love it. Great content, good streaming quality, fair price. Unfortuantely they lost the Premier League rights to Sky this season which is fine whenever I turn on my projector for the big picture - after all Sky's satellite video quality obviously is superior to a stream, but casual watching at the desk is rendered almost unbearable due to Sky's abysmal apps and streaming technology. In that regard DAZN is far superior.
Anyway, when it comes to content spanish La Liga as well as other top european soccer leagues make up for the loss of the Premier League. However as someone who enjoys watching soccer I still need both, DAZN and Sky, since there's hardly any overlap in their content and rights.
