Direct TV Now is my favorite of the “over the top” (internet streaming) providers. Many good channels, even on the lowest tier.

Ladies in the house love Hallmark Channel—Esp. at Christmas time with their traditional CHRISTMAS movies.

Anyone know if can get Hallmark Channel thru a provider other than traditional cable?

Though ROKU does have the channel available, in order to see it requires a cable provider. So much for that! :-(
However, at this time there are movies to be seen on you tube if you ‘google’ You Tube Hallmark Movies. When/if they will be removed or if these will continue to be seen w/o YOU TUBE RED subscriptions...who could say.
This is one of several links found

Christmas and Hallmark go together hand in hand. Their Christmas movies are fondly remembered.

Long time Roku streamer, here. I pay for Netflix and Amazon, and enjoy YouTube and others for free.

XTV was almost too good, to be true.

Oh well, this is part of the process. In my view, XTV was effectively “stealing” the property of others without their consent. streaming technology and streaming worlds, will continue to change.

My daughter is upset over the loss of XTV, but I warned her from the start, to not depend on it.

PERSONS we should feel for would be the owner of the app. Then, those who donated to him to enable his app to root and grow. Their dollars, well intended, bought nothing. The app owner was, basically, paid by those dollars for the many hours he spent in building and improving his accomplishment.
Taken and torn down more than once.
TV is changing even more rapidly than we can comprehend.

Like your daughter, this upset me as well. Like saying goodbye to an old best friend but there are many new ones still around who would be considered friends as well. Life goes on.
