    What do you use most

    That is in terms of watching tv, I use the following percentages.

    50% IPTV
    30% UK channels from 27.5 West.
    Leaving 20% for encrypted satellite channels.

    Just thought I would check and the results are a surprise to me compared with a couple of years ago.

    Just thought it would be interesting to see if other members viewing habits have changed.

    Re: What do you use most

    hi my friend,

    I think really all depends on what you want to view, also location a big factor, iptv is getting very popular as people in Cyprus iptv is now the only way for expats to view what they want to see, crap corrie etc, terrestrial is still mr/mrs toby69 main viewing option here in uk, satellite used for sports and many other chns.
    Do not send me iptv/cline requests,

    technical or iptv/cline server questions in PM!

    I will not answer!

          Depends on the time of year for me. Summer( when we get some) spent mostly on 28E for Sport and US series,and 13E for sport , Winter is usually all 13E. Big Winter sport fan. Do occasionally sneak a peek at *****..(only to keep abreast of things)

                            Re: What do you use most

                            I am mostly interested in sport events on my dual feed 13/19 sat especially on fall/winter/early spring time.

                            When I am not watching sports on satellite I watch some news and/or documentary on the local terrestrial digital tv.

                            My receiver is IPTV compatible but I still haven't tried it.

                              I think the amount of IPTV people will use depends upon the speed of their internet connection and what is available to them already on satellite.

                              I think the internet speed problem is the same in most, if not all, western european countries. You need to be in or near city centre for the best speeds.
