Yep all 3 of my services use the same nowtv feeds (at least on SkyF1 which is all I watch). Frustrating to not have any HD. Annoying that they all use the same feed. So I need to look at changing
weird, both my providers have FHD sports, crystal clear.
Some Providers have started using SKY go for their source when it comes to sport and many others use NOW tv. There are big differences with both, SKY go will output at FHD(1080p) and NOW tv just does HD(720P) but that's borderline basic HD if that . Alot of providers will use NOW tv as it's alot cheaper for them, easier to replace if channels get blocked their end. Very easy to get Now tv vouchers and could cost around £150 a year for each sports channel adding up to £700+ a year
Sky go is sub based streaming service for people who have a satellite so for sports it's £50-70 a month. So any provider would need 5-6 people with this service(different locations i.p wise) as you can only watch 1 stream at anyone one time, 5 channels £250 a month coming close to £3000 a year but FHD.
Most providers let pvt groups set up the sources and they just buy the streams from them, 5-6 groups last time i checked and each have different methods some amazing and others pure shit. It's very much you get what you pay for in those circles, cheap ass itpv, cheap ass source.
You know which method they are viewing by the following
Sky go You will see the word "live" flash/blink(top right) underneath the Skysports logo when the football is on etc
Sky Nowtv has a white square in the bottom right corner of the screen
Getting a stream with pop up infested ads on a website is impossible to watch, these streams are more than adequate especially for the price you pay for these days for IPTV. me personally i only use IPTV for sporting events and once those are finished i turn it off. as long as its crystal clear i don't care if its 4,5,6,7,8 or a 100K quality stream. those images you posted suggest its a decent quality but you're expecting broadcast quality which i hate to tell you won't happen in this industry whether its private or public servers.
It's your provider . Proper HD sky sports have been available to purchase for almost 2 months. Globe doesn't have them though.
Perhaps your provider doesn't have the contacts to get them or is too cheap to pay (they are expensive to buy).
