NT, convince me "cutting the cord" is a good idea

Wait with HBO? I didn't get no HBO.

HBO was an additional $5 from what I remember. So was Showtime.

Thing I don't get is why the Amazon Video app isn't available for Android based players. I even sideloaded and it still didn't work.

Amazon video, last time I check which was a long while ago, is actually in the regular Amazon app.

I wish Amazon Video was more like a streaming service and less like Blockbuster, barely use it cause I'd hate to not be paying attention and rent/purchase a move without noticing

It's a separate app now.

Yea, they force you to download it through the Amazon Market when you want to watch things on Amazon. It's coo, whatever, but I have to move my Roku from the bedroom to the front room when I want to watch it. Been a lil lazy about buying a Fire Stick but might do it this weekend since I have a $5 cert expiring.

It's been at least 2 Christmases since I even desired to look at what Amazon Video has to offer. If it wasn't for prime shipping I wouldn't need it

How do you like SlingTV? Does it lag/have bad quality? Thinking of getting the Blue Package when I move out.

@FrankNewVillage   - slingtv is great man...HD, no buffering, and now they offered me 100 hours of DVR for free (during beta testing) !!.  The most basic package is what I have + $5 for sports package and its all the channels I can ask for:  tnt, tbs, usa, cnn, travel, food, hgtv, cartoon for kiddos and much more...then with sports u get the pac12, NBATV, and a bunch of beinsports....no complaints at all and totally worth the $25 i pay a month.  Definitely check them out and look at their promo deals...when i signed up they gave 2 roku sticks.

Prob end up being my back up if DTVNow ends up disappointing or raises the price

for Prime members Amazon Video is a streaming service like Netflix

I'd hope people aren't paying for prime without knowing they have free video and music streaming. Some items you do have to buy.

i kept rereading that exchange thinking the same thing.

I know, but there's more items that I want to watch that do cost, even with prime, than the prime items. For example majority of the seasons of SpongeBob are not included in prime and cost to rent. I might as well watch em off Kodi or Terrarium.

this right here is equally confusing.

Amazon Video not available on Android based players? #excusemesaywhat

that doesnt make it something its not.

I called their service Blockbuster because there's more items that I want to view for rent than what is included in the service using SpongeBob as an example.

Their content isn't deep enough for me, their shipping benefits far outweigh their movies and shows that don't cost me anything additional.......

 Fox is selling digital-only Super Bowl ads for $700,000 (to reach streamers) versus $5mn for a TV spot

[finessesosa]

Sounds like a bargain. Companies could recoup that easily

 

[htg designs]

anyone know how to stream the superbowl on a firestick?

 

[sleepybluedemon]

I use an hdtv antenna with "amplifier" for Fox and other local channels. Is that an option?

 

[mez 0ne]

The only thing stopping me is not having an alternative to watch my local NY sports teams

In the meantime, I just use my Roku boxes to stream basic channels/sports through the TWC app

 

[King of Trash Style]

Cutting my cable today. Last week I sat down and added up all the actual tv I watched and it was only 6 hours in 7 days. $121 for cable and internet is a waste of my money.

 

[shogun]

Still on my old verizon cable package. I looked at the new offer they had and it was $25-30 more. How they losing customers and tryna charge people more?
