There have been a load of problems with this, so much so that they have taken the service down and releasing it again bit by bit.

Their reason?

"Unfortunately due to the unprecedented levels of simultaneous demand"

My question is what happens if there is a big football (soccer) game on? The thing with live sports, is that people WANT to watch them LIVE, and thus cause large levels of simultaneous demand. Welcome to Buffer town!

So, to break it down a bit.

£35 a month for all sky sports,

£40 a year for xbox GOLD,

£15 a month ISP,

A yearly cost of £640 for a service that doesn't really work!

Sweet deal!
