Adkins' Bus Posted 27 October, 2017 Share Posted 27 October, 2017 So for all you sportsmania/Ultimatemania and sports nation fans. Their service is back with witha paid option. BITCOIN! And you can’t subscribe for longer than 1 month. Looks like lots are going to be looking for other providers. Any thoughts on who to look at? I liked the fact they have pulled together all the norm channels as well it works on iOS Kodi and Spmc. It the thought of having to pay every month manually with bitcoin seems overnkill. Or am I overreacting. I also can't justify it now. Monthly price has doubled without the 6 month and yearly options and I don't want to get involved with Bitcoin. Anyone got any decent alternatives that work on kodi/spmc and browser? Don't mind paying £5/£6 a month and for a VPN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shirleysfc Posted 27 October, 2017 Share Posted 27 October, 2017 Are there any decent alternatives on Kodi? I'm happy to use a VPN and pay for streams but SM now costs twice what it used to per year!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonb Posted 27 October, 2017 Share Posted 27 October, 2017 Having been into all this past few years, started with acetsream then kodi sports devil, sportsmania etc. I have to say I'm officially out! Main reason being the football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone got any decent alternatives that work on kodi/spmc and browser? Don't mind paying £5/£6 a month and for a VPN. http://www.saintsplayer.com/ offer a decent hd stream for £5/mth without VPN (can also get directly on smart TV via browser). I only started last month and typical we were on TV during most of that (I have full Sky and BT and in Ireland you get one Sat 3pm game every week and we were one in that month!). I much prefer watching on TV so whilst having tested it have not watched full game as yet. Can provide further update next month if it helps?

Stepgar Posted 27 October, 2017 Share Posted 27 October, 2017 Flawless hosting. Check it out on face book. Seems to be a go to service. You can tea it out for £2. Then choose loads of different options from 48hrs to 12months. Which is about £80 for the year. All the channels too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that for UK users having a VPN will be the “norm” soon, especially when soccer is on. I was just looking at the Ace site and they are also using the “dreaded” Bitcoin, although not exclusively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobbit73 Posted 31 October, 2017 Share Posted 31 October, 2017 I'm not sure why you everyone is so critical about SM? I've been using it (although Down Under) throughout this period of EPL coming down hard on them, and didn't have any problems. OK, there's occasionally buffering, sometimes more than acceptable, however choices they have are awesome. Ali, price is still reasonable... I'm not gonna comment on Bitcoin thing, cause that's just a whining, as it's totally irrelevant what kind of payment are they're using, after all they have had a problem with the lasted one an they are simply adjusting to the circumstances Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_Donovan Posted 1 November, 2017 Share Posted 1 November, 2017 I used Sportsmania for almost 4 years but started to look for alternatives since the recent troubles, I’ve started using Flawless and it’s incredible! I’ve been using it for about a week and haven’t had a single buffer or kick out and my need for a VPN had gone. Great service, wish I’d joined earlier!

UM/SM was always ok for me, but the stream quality (especially the FHD sky sports streams) are defintley better. Doubt it'll last for long as I'm sure it's name will filter to the 'powers that be' - but worth signing up to as a straight replacement for UM for the time being.

Wurzel Posted 4 November, 2017 Share Posted 4 November, 2017 Can someone explain to a Luddite like me the benefits of paid services like SM and Flawless? I've found a perfectly watchable link (on laptop size screen) for everyone of our games so far this season via FirstRowSports. No Kodi/Firestick, no VPN etc. Admittedly I have to go through the usual pre-match routine of closing down various pop-ups/unders/browser tabs but once they are cleared and video is full screen it's an ok pictue and audio with minimal if any buffering. Loses a bit of clarity when shown through my 50"tv via HDMI lead but still watchable and better than the radio. What advantages do the paid services give?
