Verdict: IPTV delivers more content at a lower price — without the pass system.
NOW TV splits its offering across separate Entertainment, Cinema, and Sports passes. IPTV bundles everything into one flat monthly fee — 50,000+ channels, 99,000+ on-demand titles, and all major sports — for less than a single NOW TV Sports Pass.

The NOW TV Sports Pass Problem
At $34.99/month, the NOW TV Sports Pass costs more than twice a full Vivimate IPTV subscription — and it only covers Sky Sports. Vivimate IPTV includes all Sky Sports channels plus TNT Sports, international leagues, 500+ global channels, and 99,000+ on-demand titles, all for $14.99/month.
For anyone who watches sport regularly, the math is impossible to argue with. See also: How to watch Premier League on IPTV.
