I'm from Germany but we do have those Sky Tickets as well. It's tempting but if you get both tickets (Entertainment and Movies) then it's actually as expensive as the real thing here. Plus there's always content that's exclusive to TV. I didn't like the Netflix Marvel stuff but you're right there are good shows on there no question. I enjoyed The Expanse and Killjoys too (on Sky) but good to see that those are available too (although Killjoys not in Germany it seems..). But as soon as the second seasons of The Expanse starts it will take a while until Netflix has it whereas Sky will show it sooner (or did Netflix get better with this?).

Whoa, that's weird pricing. Although no more so than ours I guess! But a full Sky sub here is ridiculously expensive at retail. To get Sky Atlantic and SyFy in HD (1080i) you need the "Boxset" bundle at £38 a month. The "Original" package (even at £22) is SD only for the premium channels. Even paying monthly, that's more than NowTV Entertainment (which is most of Sky's premium entertainment pack except SyFy, in 720p), Netflix and Amazon Prime combined at full price (£22.49). You're right, The Expanse S02 will be a binge-able dump on Netflix, at the end, rather than a weekly trickle on SciFy, despite its billing as a Netflix Original.

  Okay it's actually similar for us but nobody gets Sky with normal pricing, there's always an offer that gets you Sky + Entertain + Movies + HD for 30€. Sky Ticket Entertainment is 10€ + Movies Ticket 15 € so it's aaaaalmost the the same. Maybe I'll switch to Netflix + Amazon + Sky Entertainment too and live with the fact that I'll miss out on movies.
