Looks like a great deal but I don't watch enough TV to even make it worthwhile. And there is no streaming of live TV but I already have that anyway via another means.

 

But some GZ'ers might find this a good deal.

Would be tempted if there was an easy way to pay for it.

I turned my VPN on to the USA but payment did not go through using a NZ visa card. How have others accomplished the registration please.

I'm a returning subscriber... but not an eligible one.
I guess that's because I had previously used the advert free option?

I had an account that was dormant. When I logged on again it offered me options to sign up and 99c was available to I took it.

 

Watching a bit of content at the moment and there are a lot of ads!  But for 99c I don't really care. PQ and AQ pretty good (I am using a Amazon Firestick 4K) but the Android app is fine also.

99c/month for 12 months. Then it reverts and that's when I will cancel

Don't know since I watch using their app but I suspect not. They play between segments and blocking them would just mean you watch 60s of blank content!
