Watch the 6th Season of the epic Game of Thrones in Australia – Unblocking HBO
The 6th season of HBO’s award-winning series Game of Thrones is just a month away and you must be now feeling eager to know about the fates of Daenerys Targaryen, Jon Snow and Cersei Lannister. All these lives were hanging in uncertainty in the previous season. However, it is pretty unfortunate that Foxtel has still sealed up its Australian broadcasting rights and this has been a disturbing factor for the Australian lovers of Game of Thrones. With that in mind, there are still few options which are available and which don’t demand you to sign up with the expensive pay TV subscriptions.
If you’re foolish enough to watch Game of Thrones in Australia, you would pay for Foxtel’s Drama combo subscription which will cost you $46 in a month for a 1 year contract. This amount sums up to around $552 throughout a whole year apart from the other installation and equipment fees. In case you’re not interested in the other entertainment programs offered by Foxtel, this is definitely spending too much of your money.
A handful of cheap options – You need not break the law
Telstra offers you the whole season Free of cost
Telstra is presently offering its broadband customers a 3 month subscription free of cost to the Platinum HD package of Foxtel. This entire package will cost you $135 per month and this isn’t any lock-in contract which clearly implies that you can cancel Foxtel once the episodes of Game of Thrones completes. Telstra is even eliminating all other set-up costs. In case you’re already a Telstra customer or you’re looking forward to opting for a subscription, it is certainly worthy considering.
Foxtel Pay subscription for 3 month
Unfortunately, the online streaming service of Foxtel, Foxtel Pay is still not offering a $5 per-month promotion like it did in the previous year. Nevertheless, the customers who are new can get themselves subscribed for 2 weeks for free of cost. For being able to watch Game of Thrones, you would require the Premium Movies & Drama package at $45 per month. Here too there aren’t any lock-in contracts. This particular deal also has access to Foxtel’s BozSets channel which gives you on-demand permission to watch any episode of Game of Thrones.
Buy a season download
The exclusive rights enjoyed by the viewers from Foxtel last only for the duration of every season. Post this; it becomes available from every single suspect like iTunes, Google Play and Quickflix. In the previous year, the 5th season came up on iTunes and Google Play 24 hours after its run on Foxtel. The only downside of this kind of method is that you may have to wait till the last episode of Game of Thrones has been aired. On the other hand, you can then sit and watch the entire thing at one go and you’ll be the owner of permanent copies.
So, if you wish to watch HBO in Australia, you should take into account the above mentioned cheaper alternatives.
