Way too over priced. Fun fact HBO said they'd never put their shows on Netflix until the price was at least doubled.

Oh wait they're charging a ridiculous amount. Almost thirty pounds for a season? Yeah cheers. No wonder people Torrent it up.

I so wanted to buy this to watch on my Note 3. The price is crazy though, almost £30 for season 1?? I just went on to Amazon and bought season 1,2 and 3 on BluRay for £34.99. Now that is a bargain.
