Cord cutting services like PS Vue

PS Vue is the latest service in the US to allow people to cut the cord from lengthy expensive cable and satellite subscriptions (http://www.theverge.com/2016/3/14/11...-nationwide-us) and it's a sad fact that the UK is getting left behind.

You should probably explain what you mean by that.

Although the mandatory licence fee is still an issue if you're trying to cut costs by cutting the cord, we're not *that* far behind with the actual services available online. We've had lots of Freeview services about, including the main providers own catchup services and the likes of TV Player for a while without there being an American equivalent. NOW TV is also in principle not much different to what is in offer here. NOW TV has some frustrating limitations but there are similair issues with all these American services so far too - certain channels only available live, not available on demand etc, not to mention the cheapest most basic bundle available in this article is 30 quid.

I'm interested though as I watch lots of American TV (the higher tiers here even have NBCSN), so if the On Demand is good and and If I can find a way to subscribe to this, or the forthcoming Direct TV online bundles, I'll consider it.
