Agree with iPad for future proofing as others have said.

If it needs to be Android, and $$$ are a consideration, I’d probably go for a Samsung Galaxy Tab A.

Updated the software and it now has installed. The only trouble is that when I click on a video it exits back to the home screen automatically or will exit the app. It starts for one second then exits

Not sure what to read into this - got an email from Kayo this afternoon saying that from Friday 16/10 their app wont work on the Foxtel Now box (I was using one before getting a Shield)…

I wonder if Seven knew when it signed it’s Supercars deal that Foxtel would be providing at least some of its coverage for free?

I would be surprised if Kayo provided free access to Foxtel-exclusive races on a regular basis. As such, would guess most of the free races will be ones Seven are also airing so that potential subscribers can sample Foxtel’s coverage

I’ve wondered for a while whether Foxtel might do something like this - Sky Sports in the UK have done it with a linear channel “Sky Sports Mix” which is available on the base Sky package that is a mix of (live and delayed) sports coverage and supplementary programming

Doing by streaming might be a better option IMO

Sounds like Rugby is more the target - basically them doing the deal and saying they could do 1 Super Rugby game a week “FTA” via Kayo, instead of the Nine/Stan deal.

Especially as you’d be worried that Nine would see that work and then look at doing it for more sports going forward.

I think that might have been an outcome if Fox had bought 10.

Does anyone know why there is never any analysis during the innings break?

Because it is a Cricket Network production.

Yeah why don’t the CA Network do it
