Showmax and Netflix prices compared

[Daniel Puchert]

Netflix versus Showmax

Showmax’s packages are more affordable than Netflix, or offer additional features at the same price, even after its price increase kicks in on 1 August.

However, Netflix offers a far more extensive content library, while Showmax focuses on a narrower niche.

Netflix is still better than anything Showmax can come up with. We had both and watched Netflix 90% of the time

Nah, only one in my household who didn't get onboard, with either.

 

[mouks]

I have both. I like showmax for local content.

 

[Brian_G]

My lot are agreeing, boring.. until this week when the dragons fought each other or something. But the CGI is apparently unrealistic.

How do you make dragons realistic anyway?
