I found the channel last year and it was obvious that it was pirating 4/5 of its content or more. got rid of it immediately. this channel had more content then most paid services and was so brazen about the theft of services that I believe they were directly linking to paid services and giving the content away.

I am a huge cable cutter fan and have been doing this for at least 7 years but the cable companys will not give up their stranglehold on the public.

We all want ala carte service over 2000 bundled channels of pralines and dick for $200 a month

Keep up the pressure and when the contracts end we may get what we want

We will never surrender to tryanny

I have not used streaming in probably 7 months due to the constant battles with copyright from the cable companys.
All I use now is free OTA just like we used to do as kids

The problem is that just like then, its a canned audienece and you cant see what you want when you want it

ota is great for nfl games but now the nfl is not worth watching.

Iwould rather wach inspector Morse reruns on ITV3 for $5 a mo

APox on the cable companys!

Does anyone watch the ‘Smithsonian channel?’ Love it!!
The Smithsonian Channel brings to you original programs, explores science, nature, history and pop culture among many things.

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?

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.
