I input the postcode of a hotel that i've stayed at and it accepted it, unlike UTV which still wouldn't allow me to access it. One good thing about STV is that you can move the cursor on until the end of each advert- very useful if it does crash.

The paid ones i use Netflix,nowtv, hulu+ i never have any trouble at all with yet hbogo can buffer a lot.
I wonder if the subscription services have more bandwidth, test their services out with more devices or something? People will moan about a 'free' service, but I'm sure they'd cancel if they were paying for it.
