Michael Corleone posted:That doesn't look like a great deal IMHO, I didn't click the link till now, I thought it was the choose 10 channels for $30 or whatever they used to do, that included the option to pick ESPN afair. I don't have cable from Spectrum, I pay $65 a month for 100/10 internet, but if I bundled I could get basic cable for $90 total a month I think. I'm not sure what you mean it looks like a pretty good deal for 24.99. Its one of the few streaming options that offer TLC (I know) for that low of a price. Youtube TV is 49.99 a month and for sure IMO isn't $25 better vs spectrum. EDIT: ah ok I see what you mean yeah espn is an extra 12 but includes a few other things. EDIT: TBF though the add-on for $15 that includes HBO , SHO, Starz, Starz encore , The movie channel is a good deal. $40 for both IMO is a good deal and gets you quite a bit of premium content.

Michael Corleone posted:I mean you need internet to run Youtube TV, or any other internet cable package. I was just saying if you are a Spectrum subscriber you can get a full package for the same price as this bundle. You can? My math must have been off because it seemed like you could but they’d jack the rate up after the intro period? I could be completely wrong (probably am) but it seems like the 39.99 is a good deal when you take into account the premium channels.

Did anyone see T-Mobile’s tv service? Lol $90 a month and you have to use their set top box. It seems like you get a boat load of channels but no hbo and lol at $90 a month and needing to use their probably poo poo tier box. https://www.t-mobile.com/tv

I still think the spectrum deal might be the best bet right now. The price is only good for two years though so its probably gonna jump up to $800 a month with no notice when the promo expires.

I'm thinking of using the YouTube TV trial for this, but if there's another method that won't make me blow that trial that'd be great Sling? DirectTV Now? PSvue? Sling has a 7 day trial I know for sure.

stevewm posted:My Dad wanted to get CBS All Access because he found out it lets you stream your local CBS affiliate so he could watch his precious NFL games. (they cant get a good enough signal for their local CBS over antenna). I discovered at least on the Roku platform, even though you enter your ZIP code and pick your local affiliate, the app will prioritize IP Geo-location and use it instead. So it picked one several states away with no way of overriding it. Que a 25 minute phone call to CBS All Access support on a Sunday afternoon. The agent I spoke with acted like they get this all the time. We truly are living in the future. It’s also poo poo when you have like YouTube tv and travel and can’t use any of it lol.

Yeah its that one for 25 and for 15 you can add in all the movie channels. The 25 channels it covers are pretty much all the major ones and for $25 it covers a lot.

It 100% doesn’t work out of the country though as I learned when I traveled. Also the ads in the YouTube TV VOD stuff are infuriating. I love to see the same ad 4 times in a row and the same 5 ads on rotation.

I know this has come up before but how is the quality of the HBO content in the Apple TV app vs Amazon? The HBO go (and now) quality is really poo poo but I want to be able to download shows which you can’t do via the amazon app. I’m thinking I’ll just subscribe to HBO through the Apple TV app as it lets you download for offline viewing but I won’t do it unless the quality is just as good.

Yeah the Apple TV is a separate app now.  I’m definitely not subscribing through the HBO app / site because the PQ is straight garbage. I seem to recall the Apple TV app using its own encoding (like the amazon app) which has drastically better PQ.

I think I’m confused. Why would they remove the app since it is just a portal to the fox content? Wouldn’t it be similar to Amazon removing the prime app or HBO removing their app? Or say fox blocking their site if you are using a Mac computer or something. Or am I completely missing what’s going on here?

loving huge LOL and gently caress HBO. So I’m flying out tomorrow and gonna spend about 20 hours total on a few flights. I was originally subscribed to HBO through amazon since the PQ in the amazon app is 10x better than the HBO now app. Problem is amazon doesn’t let you download hbo shows for off line viewing. Fixed easy enough because the Apple TV app does and has just as good PQ if not better awesome right? Well no.... You can only download 5 things at once.... 5. Not even a full season of anything. I wanted to finish the watchmen but nope. 5 fuckin things. Garbage. Oh! And the app doesn’t even tell you what the limit is it just says you hit it. I had to google to see what it was. Ridiculous. Edit: Not that it matters but the Netflix downloaded items cap is 50. MarcusSA fucked around with this message at 02:20 on Feb 3, 2020 |

I have no problem paying for poo poo but when they do stupid stuff like HBO it’s just frustrating and makes me wanna pirate things. Also the fact that it’s not even reliable that the app will work when you have no connection. Like it’s 2020 and we still can’t get this poo poo right.
