So for example, viewing content from an IPTV service is technically not disobeying the DMCA. However, downloading such content and then sending the files to others or posting it online would, in fact, be in violation of the DMCA. Last edited by jedalton; 11-27-2020 at 07:27 AM. Reason: update |

Yes. But, I would recommend the Roku stick instead of a Fire stick. I think it is the best of the streaming devices. But, in any case, you will need a separate stick for each television.

very legal
[QUOTE=John_W;1866456]That's called a jail break Firestock, you should get 6,000 channels, Already noted earlier on post #38 by heyitsrick, that's illegal, you probably won't ever get caught but you're getting loads of programming without paying a fee. BTW, the jailbreak firestick they sell at Market of Marion by 3 vendors for $140, or you buy a firestick from from Amazon and go on youtube and learn how to do it yourself.
the service is not for downloading, just watching. As long as you don't download anything it's legal. So for example, viewing content from an IPTV service is technically not disobeying the DMCA.

We moved in 3 weeks ago and opted for the Disney + bundle (Disney plus, hulu and ESPN+.) We bought our own router modem (Netgear) and so far it's working great (as long as you don't mind being a day late on everything). We used to DVR all our shows so it's the same for us. The only exception-no Jeopardy.

Youtube TV
We are using Youtube TV and are very satisfied with it. We get 83 channels for $72 per month, including tax, including all of the local network channels, national news channels and The golf channel which gives us pretty much all we want.
I believe it is download speed rather than upload speed which impacts streaming quality. We use Centurylink for internet service and get 80 megabytes per second for $45 per month for life which is more than enough to provide high quality reliable streaming. I believe the minimum requirement is about 25 MBPS. We also have a supplemental Netgear Orbi 20 wifi router system (Amazon) which provides a strong signal to all of our four tv sets. Quote:

We only have smart TV's and Spectrum internet which is great for everything. No TV service needed, there are plenty of free channels.

It's cheaper to bundle Spectrum Internet and TV.

How do you use the DVR if you no longer have the cable service? Don’t they want that equipment back if you cancel cable service and only keep Internet?

Many streaming services have a cloud based DVR service that requires no equipment. Actually, I think most of the cable TV services now use a cloud based system also.
