Bitrate is very poor.

Hello,

 

Now i have taken the 12 months blackfriday deal at £200 as it seems to be a good deal.

However i really dont know why Sky find it acceptable to totally mug us off with these poor streams.

 

Before i go on...

My internet speed and connection is fine and using ethernet.

 

Now i also pay for BTTV along with BT sports and the stream quality they offer is far far far far supierior to this rubbish, it is so good infact that it is similar to satillite quality. Now i say this because this proves that i cant be palmed off with the whole connection issue nonesense.

 

In 2017 will someone please explain to me using technical terms if you wish why you are supplying a sub par 720p stream witha diabolical bitrate that makes watching anything fast moving *cough* Formula 1 *cough* extremely hard to watch? It is totally unacceptable for a multi billion pound organisation like yourselves to offer such a poor quality stream surely? I mean surely it is a little bit embarrasing when illegal streams are streaming at 1080p at higher bitrates than your official streams? I dont agree with illegal streams what so ever but why are you holding back on quality? do you secretly want me to just spend double on a sky and broadband subscription? I dont get it, please explain. 

 

 

Kind Regards, Harris91.

yes totaly agree were being mugged its being palmed of that its happening at our end its called passing the buck. its probaby cheaper for them to give us a low bitrate and on a 46inch 4k tv you might as well turn off from nowtv its unwatchable and i am conneted by ethernet and broadband fibre-optic. were being totaly mugged...
