Hi looking to potentially get sky sports but would need another multi room box. I am just not willing to pay for another 1. I have up multiroom a few years ago and then got in back in a lesser form. They are now charging for another box and it's not cheap. Anyone get another box for free

Why does Sports require a mini? And no, never got one for free.

@wizzbizz if you already have multi room you won't get another free one has only the first one is usually free, any additions cost

@Chodley probably to watch it in a different room that doesn't currently have a box

So no direct dependency then, just not allowed to hogwatch sport on the main family TV? 😁

No: Sky doesn't get any additional monthly revenue after the first Q Mini because Multiscreen is a fixed amount, so they recover the hardware cost by charging a fee.
