I'm going to miss the game tonight  can I watch it tomorrow on catch up?

Yeah you can catch up on the whole game on demand. Yet another positive of Prime.

 

I did notice how good the stream was last night. Using a Smart TV app with my ethernet plugged into the TV and Virgin Media 500mb broadband, so was expecting it to hold up, but what AP provide is great. No internet crashes tonight please.

Wonder if Amazon became the norm over Sky/ BT, would they raise the prices? Would be interesting to see,  but probably

Not sure why they would raise prices. They'd be happy to use it as a loss leader to wind more people into the amazon ecosystem. You've only got Prime to watch the football, but within a few weeks three packages are week are arriving at your door, you've got a kindle, few echos dotted around the house.... This is why they choose December for their live broadcasts. People sign up to prime, watch the football, do all their xmas shopping on it, think its the best thing ever so never cancel

I for one welcome our new Amazon overlords. The streams last night were great.

 

I'd keep up my trick of going to the loo so we score a goal tonight, but I do think that's just rubbing it in the face of their warehouse workers.

I shouldn't laugh - but that did get me !

Thought Amazon was really good last night aside from the main commentators.

 

Alan Shearer and Ally McCoist both good as co-commentators.

Francis Benali on commentary tonight with Neil Lennon. Pretty sure Benali is another of those on a long list of players who never scored to bag against us. Pretty sure I was there when he did too.

My Amazon stream of Newcastle v Norwich via the TV was superb, very good HD picture, though it seemed to freeze for about 90 seconds as the camera passed Delia Smith

Think you can get a trial every 6 months.

 

You used to be able to use multiple accounts to have a never ending trial - then they ruined the fun and started cracking down on multiple users using the same bank card 😂

Which is why it's great there are two of us living here, with additional separate bank accounts (+1 shared) even though we're married...

🤣 We’ve been piggybacking off my mums family privileges for 2 years. Surprised they let you share that with another account.

Share what? It depends on who logs in   (EDIT: we only use my computer to watch stuff online together, since I now have the biggest/best monitor  )

So our game is not in 4k. Today only the Everton vs Liverpool game is in 4k (UHD) so I guess we'll have to just cope with HD.

Their coverage is very decent and improving and same with the tennis. Just a huge shame we have to use them at all. Horrible company.

I've had 3 this year

Although, the miserable gits only offered me a week for 99p yesterday.

 

Is it best to use the TV app or go through Sky/Virgin for the best picture\connection?

I watched on the Virgin box last night

[BroughtonFox]

I hope Amazon take the full rights. At least they show every game.

I find the picture better on my TV app.

Anyone's commentary not working? 

[phoneticerror]

My stream is over 1 minute behind my mate, who text me about the first goal before I knew what was going on. Pretty annoying this.

 

I’ve stopped and started and still the same. Will try on PS5 second half.

Commentary is working fine, unfortunately can't say the same about the team.
