    DirecTV Now Price Increase

    It take as long as 30 seconds, on average a channel is loaded in 15 seconds. It is by far the slowest of any streaming service I have tried. I like the service but by biggest problem with it is they have not authorized the fox sports app to view the Fox RSN's (I have read that some areas are...

    DirecTV Now Price Increase

    I had a free trial of DirectvNOW, and I really did not see the point. I tried the "just right" package and, like cable and Directv, loaded with a lot of channels I never watch. Trying YTTV right now for a month with the roku offer they had last month. It has a good balance of channels I watch...

    Screens?

    I am planning to cut the cord and start using a streaming service. The services restrict the number of screens you can use at one time. But you can use your credentials for the service to log into the various network apps. (i.e., watchespn, etc.). Does logging into the network app count as a...

    Need thoughts on SuddenLink...

    I have MagicJack for my family's "landline". The reason I did not recommend is it does not offer the battery backup that a home base cell phone box has. My family has multiple cell phones so a landline is not critical thus we use the magicJack for those instances where a landline is more...

    Need thoughts on SuddenLink...

    I am in Lubbock about 120 miles south of Amarillo and I am about to complete a 2 year contract with att for sat and internet. After having suddenlink for a couple years. First thing I would suggest is forget the phone on the triple play unless she just absolutely has to have a "landline"...

    4k Installation?

    I have had directv for a little over a year. I have a hr54 and 2 c61k's. This week I purchased a 4k tv and would like to check out the 2 free 4k channels offered by directv. I would like to hook it up myself. I have the new tv on one of the c61k's. I read where it needs to be wired, if they...

    Bait and switch?

    I can vouch for this. I was looking at Directv in July for the 4 room offer and internet. I even chatted with a guy online to verify the uverse internet included unlimited data (it does). I planned to make the change but by the time I got around to it the offer was down to 2 rooms free...

    Home hardware (wiring)

    We have purchased another house and will be moving in the couple of weeks. The previous owners had Directv and I noticed that every location where they had a television they have a HDMI cable coming out of the wall. The usual rg6 cable is also nearby. So I am wondering the exact use of the...

    Sling TV to add Campus Insiders Network, bolsters live college sports offering

    This may be a little off topic but does the comment in the release about customers can access watchespn including espn 3 mean that my 9yo daughter could be watching Disney on a Roku while I used another Roku at the same time to view watchespn or espn 3?

    Cord cutters and unbundling

    Interesting article about sports media future with unbundling and the age of cord cutters. Whether you like sports or not this is an interesting read. One very interesting question for sports fans is would you pay $30/per month for the suite of espn channels...

    In Memorium: Rich ( Anole) Steincross Has Passed Away. May He Rest in Peace

    Very sad indeed. And make no mistake this was his family, just wish I could have known him outside this forum, as he appeared to be a very helpful and sincere individual with a keen sense of humor. RIP

    Contest: Enter to Win a Titanium Satellite PLL C-band LNBF - Ends Oct. 20, 2014

    Beggars cannot be choosy, except in this case I guess. I would love to any of them but I could use a C2PLL Wideband since I have 2 recievers. From what I have read any of these should improve the performance of my 8ft'er. Thanks for another contest, Brian.
