Ben (@WorbleTweets) reportedWhy is there no way to limit the playback quality in @NOW??? I live in the middle of nowhere so my internet isn't great so i'd like to lower the quality of streaming so it doesn't eat my bandwidth. Such a weird oversight considering every streaming service has this option. #NOWTV

L (@biggggbandzzz) reportedMy nowtv refusing to work on my laptop is annoying me SO BAD im having to watch my dumb show on my phone rn
-
Eddie (@EddTheDick) reportedThe fact that I have to be in the US to use my #AppleTV subscription to watch the #F1 and using a VPN doesn’t solve the problem is bullshit of the highest order. Can’t even switch my Apple ID region because I’d have to cancel Apple One to do it. **** Sky and NowTV. Piracy it is.

Mark Winter (@MarkWinter02) reported@RawnsleyAn86745 @rebzeleanor @SkySports I'm close to agreeing with you. If you removed the word tin pot, I definitely would. No team or match has the automatic right to be on telly. Womens football deserves coverage and the men's match was very prominent on nowtv Both were on telly. No issue really.

ProPatria (@ukiscensored) reported@NOWTV 28 a month for absolute crap quality on the TV YET AGAIN.
