I want title 2 for net neutrality but I'm not sure why you would say that. Sling is coming from dish who is paying for the channels it's much cheaper than normal cable albeit fewer channels but for people like me who watch very little TV this is perfect. Anything I want to catch up on that is not on sling can probably be found on Hulu for like nine bucks a month or Netflix and it comes with sports and news channels.
He is saying that because, like Netflix, they can shape the bandwidth and really screw it up unless Sling pays their extortion fees. Not about redistribution of channels but the IP traffic.
I'm going for $25 package with basic + News & Info Extra for the Coking and DIY channels. The two channels I really wanted was Disney for the girls and a news channel. Between this and the $9/month Huluu I'm going to save more then $100/mo. Can't wait till the XB1 app comes out.
I think more that they see the future and are trying to lock people into contracts now.
They just started a 105 down/whatever up in our area too for $50/m. I'm currently at 50 MB down for the same price and will be moving soon so I'm crossing my fingers I can get the 105 down for the same price. Question for people who've dealt with comcast in the past, should I just cancel my service at our current place and reorder the new stuff once we move? Or just tell them we're moving and have them move the service to the new address? What is easiest/best?
Sling currently works on roku3, android, and iOS devices (I think Amazon fire stick to). XB1 support has been announced but the app is not completed yet. Note that you are only allowed to watch sling on one device at a time and they are still working on plans to support multiple devices and if it will be for an additional cost. Note there is no PC viewing option at this time.
The invite I literally just got says PC and Mac, so I'm not sure you are correct. I haven't done anything with it yet to verify that claim, but here's the email as evidence.
