Just about to sign up fro the entertainment package and wanted to know from users experience which is the best/reliable Set Top box to use for NOW TV? I currently own PS3/PS4/ATV3 Any info appreciated 🙂

Welcome to the forum. All those devices you mention will give you the best quality NOW TV currently offers(720p video with stereo sound), however the ATV app currently is basic and a bit under featured so I'd go for the PS4 personally. You can have up to four registered devices on your account so you can try all three devices out and see what you think.

There are other devices available, including NOW TV's own range of boxes but no reason to go buying something extra if you find you're happy with the devices you already have, so I'd give those a whirl for a few days using one of the free trials and see how you go.

If it was me and you don't want the Freeview TV channels or the other main streaming services such has Netflix, Amazon Video, Google then i would personally go for the NowTV black box.

Should you go with the NowTV black box, then i would also suggest pick up one up from places like Currys etc with the bundled entertainment pass voucher in the box 

Edit - @Anonymous User, just follow @Andy sound advice in his post, also i would recommend buying entertainment vouchers or gift cards from places like Currys, Argos etc where you can save yourself a few quid compared to the monthly entertainment subscription fees
