    ROKU EXPRESS!! cutting the cord continue

    just bought one yesterday, watched a few youtube vidoes on the best apps to get for free live tv more specific. Hands down i am impressed. Literally wife and myself have been looking for a cut the cord option for 2 years. The streaming pc onto tv thing was getting old and, frusteration, time consuming. The whole idea is to find a program fast, and easy without aggitation all right from the couch. Exactly what this device does unreal

    Roku has the cleanest interface, it's fast, and has a ton of content. You can do a lot with a firestick, but the Roku platform is the best IMO.

    Best way Otter

    I tried all the gimmicks and yes they were cheaper but very inefficient went back to paying normal prices and the service is 1000 times better


    Always remember anything cheap is terrible any walk of life and any category

    I'm quite happy with Youtube TV, Netflix and Amazon prime. Cable TV is likely going to die off in the coming years.

    Buffering is caused for many different reasons if you have a 150mbps connection or 1gig connection it will not effect buffering at all

    Been cutting the cord going on 7 months now. Use Sportztv and love it. Yes the occasional buffering issues but as opposed to paying cable $125 a month well worth it.

    False to the nth degree. 25Mbs for 4K/UHD, 5Mbs for HD. Any decent internet plan is more than capable, assuming you don't have 10 kids streaming games at the same time. And Gold is an idiot on this subject, as he's proven numerous times.

    Nothing could be further from the truth. I have cable, but also iptv. Watch any sport, game, ppv I want. If it's broadcast I can watch it.




    Every time the topic of iptv comes up there's a ton of misinformation posted. You'd think the cable companies were sponsors

    It’s all BS

    I tried top notch companies all buffer

    All the shops are opening closing weekly because they’re getting shut down and they keep the money

    Affiliates making a killing they just keep opening up new sites knowing they’re going to close anyway in a month tops

    most likely buffering because that provider that is reselling another service and probably hosting on its own server. Sportztv is just a rebranded helix iptv

    YouTube TV is losing a ton of money as is Sling
