I'm not familiar with Stirr, Xumo, or Airy! Will look up. Interesting. Any other hidden gems I'm missing out on? Anything else from OTA world like Grit, Laff, GetTV, etc?

A while back (2 yrs?) I remember starting a thread on free streaming apps. Do we have a new consolidated free IPTV app thread? We were discussing Pluto, Comet, PBS, PBS Kids, Crackle, CW, Tubi, Popcornflix, etc. I think this would be a cool one to revisit if we haven't lately. A lot has...

For paid services we're exclusively Netflix & Disney+ right now. No college football would extend that. As far as roaming IPs, I know a ton of ppl who watch Netflix in the hotel for work trips (packing Fire & Roku devices). We do it when traveling to "the grandparents" for my kids to watch...

I really like this idea. OTA is rough at my house. Add NHK News to list if not already on it. There's also a ton of like Pluto, Tubi, Crackle, PopcornFlix, etc. These may be free services or VOD type setups, but relevant to discussion I think.

stmcld, SEC Network is a must for us during football season. Seeing your avatar, I was on the field for the A&M/UK OT football game last season! I'm really happy with Vue's offering (channels & quality) , but decided to do the math on price. At first glance, Sling didn't come out much cheaper...

Put by the curb. Gone! Thinking it's scrap metal hunters on trash day.

Not tying to sale. Freebie for community. If any installers or hobbyists in Houston area that could use Dish satellite, mounting bracket, and/or pole... it's yours. Take entire rig. Did some yard work today & removed. LNBF gone. 2 pics:

Still branded as Sony Crackle right now. Looks like that happen end of March so fairly recent. I quite enjoyed The Oath & Snatch TV series originals.

Agree on remote comments. FF, RW, Pause, etc were a pain on mobile while casting too. More TV like on Roku with remote. Roku also allows for hardwired via Cat 5e/6 if you're near your internet modem or can run cable to TV locations. Media over Coax (to RJ45 Ethernet) is an option as well...

Thanks guys. Will tell him to look into Sling & AT&T Watch Now. I honestly forget about the latter.

When telling others about Vue, I had several respond with "But I don't have a Playstation." While they might have gained subs from PS console owners, I think they lost a lot more opportunity to gain the casual Sling type audience with their branding. Interesting they decided to brand Crackle...

Checking in. This August will be 2 years on Vue :) Still really happy with the platform & cranking the package down to Access tier outside of football season. Hallmark Channel being in Core package & overlapping with football helps Mrs. Jago. Over 2 years I've saved roughly $1,000 - $1,200...

I have a buddy asking me the most price aggressive way to access live (not just VOD) TNT via OTT providers? DVR is a bonus. I'm personally a Vue sub ($45 Access non football season, $50 Core during football). I know there are cheaper overall options but Vue fits my family needs... well, wife...

Yeah, my wife is good now with baseline HM on Vue. She really only "needs" (her words) it during Christmas though. Think HM Now might fill that "off season" gap for her though :) Thankfully she's not addicted to any of their ancillary channels... yet.

Thanks for the input osu1991 & Jhon69 . I think knowing we'll have PSVue during Hallmark channel primetime (thankfully Christmas overlaps with football) helps my case A LOT. Then she has below set up outside of football season: CW VOD app - terrible teen drama shows (free) PBS VOD app -...
