Watched Dance with the Stars NZ on demand last night, using a Freeview streaming/recording box.

On Demand using the Freeview platform is just SD - could easily see the pixelation and jagged edges. And they only had Episode 1 and Episode 2 Part 2 available - missing the first half of episode 2.

I opened the ThreeNow app on my smartphone and they had Episode 2 Part 1 listed there. And using cast to the Freeview box was HD.

Why not HD on Freeview? Why break a 60 minute episode in two and not even make the first half available?

I've never had a great experience with the ThreeNow on demand apps. It's UX is just a pain to navigate.

Looking at their site today they have "DWTS Season 8 Episode 3 Part 1"

Season 8? It's Season 3.

"Episode 3 Part 1"? Why break a single episode into parts?
