Compare Streaming Service Prices in Australia
These days there’s multiple pay TV services – Foxtel being the top of the pay TV heap – and a huge range of streaming TV services sold on a month-to-month basis. Foxtel TV plans start from $49 per month for the standard Foxtel Plus bundle. This can be bundled with Sports ($25/month) or Movies ($20/month )in HD. To get Foxtel Plus, Sports, Movies, and the Kids Pack in one bundle, Foxtel’s Premium Bundle is offered for $99/month, while Platinum Plus gets you everything for $140/month.
Customers signing up for 12 months can also avail of these bundles with up to $40/month off each month for a year, depending on existing promotions. They’re so popular that now, if you want the best of both worlds, you can actually get a Netflix subscription bundled in with your Foxtel and watch both right there on the same iQ box. And you don’t need a satellite dish installed to get access to Foxtel, either – if you prefer, you can take your Foxtel completely online and stream live channels as well as the full range of on-demand content with Foxtel Now – no contract, no installation, no hassles, and start from only $25/month for the base Essentials Pack.
But these days, TV entertainment is about more than just conventional live channels – and when it comes to comparing on-demand streaming services, you’ve got nearly a dozen to choose from. For excellent dramas, there’s BINGE from $10/month, Disney Plus for 13.99/month, BritBox for $8.99/month, or Amazon Prime Video for $6.99/month. For sports fans, Kayo’s sports plans from $25/month are tough to beat, or if you want to include drama in the mix, then Foxtel Now’s Essentials + Sports is available for $54/month. Both options have no lock-in contract so you can change your plans or even cancel at any time. The choice is yours!
Latest streaming deals
It’s a highly competitive world when it comes to the various TV companies vying for your hard-earned dollars, and as a result there’s almost always some special offers to be found where you can get the entertainment you want and save money in the process. Whether it’s free Netflix bundled in with your Foxtel plan, or special discount rates on streaming plans, it’s worth keeping an eye out for a bargain – so keep an eye on this page for the latest!
Choosing a Streaming service
Choosing how to watch your favourite shows, movies and sports isn’t a one-size-fits-all scenario. The streaming service that best suits you might not suit someone else, and just which one is ideal for you is contingent on a whole range of factors.
The most obvious is, of course, what you like watching, but other things like your budget and internet connection also play a role. So, just what factors should you be looking at prior to making your choice of streaming service?
Content
This is probably the most obvious. Different services offer different content, and even when there are overlaps – which happens fairly often – licensing deals mean that different seasons and episodes may be absent across streaming services. On top of that, you need to consider what type of TV you like to watch – are you a reality show guru (in that case, hayu is a no-brainer according to this review), prefer your movie classics, or can’t get enough live sport?
Price
How much this will bother you obviously depends on your budget, but generally people will be looking for something which offers a little bang for their buck regardless of what they can afford. Most streaming services are very affordable, particularly compared to days past when you’d be paying to rent whatever you wanted to watch at a video store. Many services offer a very reasonable monthly fee to access their entire library, while others are a little more pricey – though obviously when this is the case, the range of content is typically a little more extensive.
Data Usage
It’s important to know just how much data different streaming services use, as this can ultimately impact the overall cost you pay. If one platform costs a little less per month but uses more data than alternatives, those without unlimited data in their internet plans could end up paying more than they bargained for.
Streaming services in Australia
The world of pay TV is an ever-growing market, with more choice now than TV fans have ever had before. The days of turning on the TV and choosing what to watch from five channels are well and truly over, with options available to suit all budgets. These are the key players in the current pay TV and streaming landscape – pick as many as you like!
Foxtel
Pay TV giant Foxtel remains the most popular traditional pay TV provider available, featuring a wide selection of live sports, as well as popular movies and shows from Australia and around the world. They also have a streaming option, Foxtel Now.
Foxtel From Telstra
Meanwhile, Foxtel from Telstra is ideal for Telstra subscribers who want to enjoy everything Foxtel has to offer, and pay for it on their Telstra bill.
Kayo Sports
Australia’s first dedicated sports streaming service, Kayo Sports uses its access to Foxtel’s sports channels to offer over 50 sports, live or on-demand in High Definition, and all for just $25 per month.
Kayo from Telstra
Telstra customers can get the very same Kayo Sports service by simply adding it to their Telstra billing. Even better, a Telstra-Kayo deal gets you the convenience of bundling sports and your other essential services.
Fetch TV
An excellent alternative to Foxtel, Fetch TV‘s strength lies mainly in its powerful boxes: Fetch Mighty, Fetch Mini, and Fetch Mini 4K. Premium channels are sold in $6 packs, and are streamed over the internet.
Foxtel Now
A great alternative for those who like their entertainment delivered via the internet, Foxtel Now comes with a great selection of channels and no complicated installation process. You simply sign up, choose the channel packs you want, and start watching in minutes.
Netflix
With tons of original productions, Netflix remains a well-rounded, user-friendly, and comprehensive streaming service suitable for the entire family. Subscribers can enjoy a variety of content – movies, TV shows, documentaries, tons of them exclusive to Netflix.
Stan
A strong contender to Netflix, Stan’s library is constantly growing and many shows are fast-tracked from the US, making it an appealing choice for anyone who wants to stay on top of buzz-worthy content.
Hayu
Hayu only caters to reality fans, but it does so flawlessly. With a huge library including entire seasons of popular reality shows, as well as fresh episodes fast-tracked from the US, Hayu is a great choice for anyone looking for a new, addictive binge.
Telstra TV Box Office
Looking to rent or buy the latest releases, fresh from the cinema? Telstra TV Box Office is the place to go. From blockbusters to acclaimed classics, Telstra TV Box Office has something in store for every movie fan.
Amazon Prime Video
Included in the annual Amazon Prime subscription or available separately, Amazon’s streaming selection is expanding month after month. Its low price makes it a worthwhile investment.
DocPlay
Ideal for documentary lovers, DocPlay offers an impressive selection of docos from all around the world. A must for anyone looking to expand their knowledge.
YouTube Premium
YouTube Premium is certainly worth the investment if you’re an avid YouTube user. It gets rid of ads, opens you up to an entire world of original content from YouTube’s top creators, and enables background playback (listening to videos with the screen off).
Paramount Plus
Paramount Plus is a rebranded Ten All Access with a deep catalogue of library featuring shows from Paramount, Network Ten, Showtime, and CBS, with some live sports, for just under ten dollars a month.
Disney Plus
As the name suggests, you get TV shows and films from Disney itself, but the range of content is far more extensive than that – movies from Pixar, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Star Wars franchise and more. Disney Plus also adds Star for 1000+ hours of new content catered to adult viewers and the add-on service Premiere Access to stream the latest movie releases.
Apple TV+
