Expat TV
Supercharge your Viewing & Streaming options!
There are hundreds of online subscriptions available nowadays and you only have to subscribe to a few for the costs to mount-up. However, the following options are enjoyed by many expats (myself included) no matter which country you are living in.
What gadgets do I need?
- A reasonably fast internet connection of at least 2Mbps – The faster the better!
- An Amazon 4K Firestick – Preferably the “international version” but any Amazon 4K Firestick will work*
* NOTE: If you are already in the Philippines, please use the Amazon links on this page to order your Firestick as Amazon does not ship Firesticks to the Philippines from Amazon UK/USA/EU.
Two Great Options for Expats
The following Comet & PLEX options offer an incredible amount of viewing pleasure and an endless supply of entertainment. They are both strictly by invitation only!
I use Comet to watch Live TV from the UK/USA, including BBC, Bloomberg Finance, History, Discovery, Science, Docs etc. and all the Sky Sports Channels. My Kids love all the popular Children’s Channels, including Disney, Nickelodeon and MTV.
I started with the Comet Package to see how things went and have continued to subscribe to the package for the last 3 years. It really is a great way to access International Live TV.
I subsequently added the PLEX Media Server 6 months later after rave reviews from other expat users. It’s available via the same guys in the UK that provide the Comet Package. This particular PLEX Package gives access to a Private Media Server hosting the VERY latest Movies & Series with over 20,000 Movies, Series, UFC re-runs, Pay-per-View Live Events and a handy ‘Playlist’ function to store titles for viewing later. It’s Movies+ much more – on steroids!
