Pay TV has revolutionised television. Free-to-air channels simply can’t compete with the variety offered by Pay TV subscriptions. Pay TV not only gives you access to more of your favourite programs; it gives you the flexibility to watch them when you want, on any device you choose.

Choosing between Pay TV services can be tricky. After all, there’s so many options! We take a look at some of the most popular.

Foxtel

Foxtel is the original Pay TV provider in Australia. Long before the major streaming services were available, Foxtel allowed Aussies to watch a wide range of programs from around the world on hundreds of different channels. These days, you don’t need a special satellite dish or cable connection to watch Foxtel – just a reliable internet connect and compatible device.

Foxtel offer bundled plans to allow you to customise your viewing experience. If you want a bit of everything, you should choose their Platinum Plus or Premium options, which give you access to hundreds of channels of drama, reality TV, documentaries, lifestyle shows and more, plus 12 channels of sport, 4 channels for kids shows, and over 1000 movies. If you have more specific tastes, you can get specialised Sports packages, or only opt for the Movies bundle.

Netflix

Netflix is such a popular streaming service that it is sometimes used in place of ‘television’ – ‘Want to watch Netflix?’ This service has grown to feature hundreds of popular shows and movies, and even produce their own. All of Netflix is ad-free, so you will never have to wait through commercials to find out what happens next.

Netflix lets you watch on any internet connected device, so you can stream TV shows, movies, documentaries and more on your phone, tablet, laptop and TV.

Amazon Prime Video

Amazon Prime streaming service features lots of popular movies and shows, as well as Amazon Original content (or programs made exclusively for the service). Like Netflix, it has no ads and lets you watch whatever you want, whenever you want.

Prime also allows you to rent movies for a small fee, so you can see new releases at the same time that they’re in the cinema. You can even rent or buy movies on Prime without a membership.

Apple TV+

Apple TV+ is the streaming service you can access for free for a limited time when you purchase an Apple device, like an iPhone or MacBook. Like other services, it offers Apple Originals – series, movies and more – exclusive to their platform. Most content is on demand, although some series are choosing to go back to the ‘once a week’ format and will release a new episode each Friday.

Stan

Stan is the Australian-owned streaming service that gives you access to home-grown content, as well as big-name international shows. Stan can be watched on a range of devices, including Smart TVs, computers, and gaming consoles such as PlayStation and Xbox.
