This is the comparison we get asked about most, and it makes sense: both start at attractive prices, both are popular, and they're actually good at completely different things. So let's settle it properly.
TREX IPTV: the live TV machine
TREX is built for live television. 55,000+ channels — nearly double MegaOTT's count — with streams that hold up when it matters. The EPG is accurate, sports coverage is excellent, and the whole thing feels engineered for people who watch TV the traditional way: live, as it happens.
The trade-off: TREX barely bothers with VOD. Its movie library is essentially a rounding error compared to the competition.
MegaOTT: the binge-watcher's paradise
MegaOTT went the opposite direction. 27,000 live channels (still plenty) but over 156,000 movies and an absurd 1.2 million series episodes. New episodes show up fast, box sets are complete, and it offers 2- and 3-connection plans — something TREX doesn't do.
Head to head
- Live channels: TREX wins, easily (55K vs 27K)
- Movies: MegaOTT, no contest
- Series: MegaOTT again — it's not close
- Sports reliability: TREX
- Starting price: MegaOTT (€10 vs €13)
- Multi-device: MegaOTT (up to 3 connections)
So which one?
Ask yourself one question: when you turn on the TV, do you usually know exactly what live thing you're about to watch? If yes — match, news, a specific channel — get TREX. If you usually open the TV thinking "what do I feel like watching tonight?", get MegaOTT.
And if you genuinely can't decide, that's what the free trial is for. Test both this weekend and your own screen will tell you.
