Have fun using a cloud service for hd content and hitting your bandwidth cap. Thanks to ISPs, our internet service is moving backwards to the days of dialup where you only get so much access per month. I use on average 200gigs of month. That’s watching Netflix and xfinity on demand streaming on a home theater PC. I wont pay their stupid rental fee and can’t afford a ceton tuner. Plus, streaming gets me hd content despite not paying for the upgraded service.
In my area, Comcast isn’t enforcing their cap but ATT is. Rather than innovate, they want to stifle technology growth in an effort to maintain their greedy monopolies. Telecoms have a rich history of shady business practices so its no surprise and laying fiber isn’t cheap, despite the gov picking up a portion of the tab.
As a once avid over the air tuner user, its worth explaining how difficult it can be to get good reception. You need a clear line of site. This product fixes that issue for millions of people who live in environments, like apartments, that aren’t suitable for antenna use. Some places only allow direct tv and dish network equipment. Some are lucky enough to be able to take the dish down and replaced with a uhf or vhf antenna but most apartments wont allow it.
“Some places only allow direct tv and dish network equipment.”
Even if this place is rented, this is probably an illegal restriction as per Federal law, which trumps any homeowners association, local, federal or state law. They aren’t “permitting” anything by “allowing” direct TV. I know this because I was an officer of a HOA and I looked into it due to someone’s complaint.

For sure there is a long history of shady relationships between cable companies and local politicians.
That's all I needed....Its all about you!..........*S*
