CBC has navigated the digital curve quite well, except I am in one of those areas where they didn't replace the CBC English analog transmitter with a digital one (hence no English CBC for me), so if I want to watch Saturday night hockey the streaming service is vital.

Stop it. You cannot blame someone ELSE for a person’s decisions. If something is unaffordable to you, then it’s unaffordable to you. Life is unfair.

[@soulnull]

Tyler, I get where you're coming from, but I had no option when I built out my tvheadend system. I was able to tie in my 3 hdhomerun tuners with 3 different markets seamlessly with all of my other "cable" channels. I can map whatever channels wherever, and it'll pick which antenna is best for each channel based on priorities set for each channel in the server. DirecTV didn't even give me the ability to watch the channels I paid for on my Linux desktop, let alone integrate it into this system, which is why I started looking at these alternatives and ultimately built out my own system using these providers. The heavy handed approach the "legitimate" providers are taking in an attempt to put the genie back in the bottle backfired. On the plus side, my TV setup is the envy of everyone who sees it. Quick, responsive, ad free, and my antennas have internet backups they'll automatically switch to if the OTA loses lock for whatever reason. Whole home DVR with separate profiles for each household member, seamless network roaming.. You may not like the concept of illegal streams, but there is no legitimate way to accomplish this otherwise. I tried. This was my option. You'd understand if you ever got a chance to see just how good a TV setup can be when unshackled from the restrictions the providers place on them. Demonize the providers if you wish, but some of us consumers have reasons to appreciate having this alternative option.

[@SOCOMJOHN]

What do you use?

[@jrs9264]

You are testing antennas, and that is great. What we also could use is your opposite: a guy who uses the same antenna system, but tests different tvs to see which have the best antenna tuners. There are a lot of brands currently in stores that are made in Mexico. For all we know, all made in the same third party plant, with common parts like tuners, but each brand customizing the chip, display panel, and system ( roku, amazon, google) . Just like gasoline , shipped plain gas by pipeline , which then gets an additive package added at the terminal where the local gas stations get their brand supplied. 🤔🧐

Limewire is not a IPTV service. It's a peer to peer file sharing service. They got sue by the movie studios, and the TV networks and cable network around 14 or 15 years ago. They didn't get shut down, cause the law enforcement service didn't want it shut down, cause some of the people were sharing illegal files of under age people and the law enforcement service wanted to arrest as many they can catch. They couldn't do so if Limewire and other file sharing service like were shut down. So instead the Judge allow Limewire to continue service and to pay every legal file that was share to it copyright owner.

That is somewhat similar to the open source software movement.

Copyright originally deserved respect. Not anymore. Basically, if you want to sell intellectual property, you enter into privately-negotiated contracts with each buyer detailing the limits upon the transfer (otherwise it's considered complete under common law). Copyright was created to lessen that burden in order to "promote useful arts & sciences" (as the US constitution recognized it). Society benefits when creative people create (inventors invent). But, there was an expectation that these "umbrella contract" properties would revert to being owned by society via the Public Domain. It was a quid pro quo. We (society) facilitate the contractual limitation the transfer of property, making it easier for creators (nobody's making them use copyright. They could choose to pursue private contracts with each sale. They choose copyright because it's easier.). In return, we (society) gets a treasure trove of property via the Public Domain. At the time of the constitution (1789), copyright was like a 14-year duration (with an optional 14-year renewal). In 1831, it became 28 years + optional 14. It wasn't until 1909 that it became 28 + optional 28 years. Starting in 1976, things tilted outrageously toward the interests of creators (actually, corporate interests). Now we're at 95 + 120, or life of the author + 70 years. It's hardly a quid pro quo now. Windows 3.1 won't enter the Public Domain for another 70 years. It wouldn't be worth anything to anyone today, let alone then. Basically, the socially-created umbrella contract has become a private contract to the benefit of creators (or the corporations who own intellectual property). They'd never dream of reverting to private contracts because they have all the benefits of private contracts via public law. It's society who is now shortchanged in that (what was) balance of give/take. I wish Tyler was more activist about some of these things, rather than parroting the line (they want us to accept, with open wallets). It's like he signals "sensibility." But, not everything deserves sensibility. There are things to be outraged about (and protest with civil disobedience). It's scary. But, it's real. Copyright has become a corrupt, one-sided transaction (compared to what it was intended to be).

[@RusticPickle24]

Can we get a video on how to find the best illegal ones

The best website fr. Unfortunately the streams are 360p 30fps with ads and trackers everywhere but we make do with what we got lol.

I agree there’s no reason to pay for things that are free.. but for me, they aren’t free. I can’t get any locals with an antenna. No signal out in yee haw ville.

[@ads3453]

If the big companies haven't learned by now then nothing will help them. Look at what happened to the music industry, we had Napster and Limewire and Kazaa P2P etc then we had FTP sharing and then we had BitTorrent. What killed most of that off ? When the whole music industry woke the hell up and started offering affordable services like Spotify etc. It looks like we are going through the same motions yet again this time with video content in order for the greedy cable companies to wake the hell up. Give it time and they will get the message. Until then services like these look like they are on the increase.

[@Weensx]

The free iptv services are just a waste of time you spend more time just browsing to see what is actually available to watch and then 20 mins into the channel you lose connection from their shitty servers, not worth the headache tbh just get sling.

Wow....new things you see and learn everyday

Wow good video what about all the free stuff on kodi how does that fit into the mix it has live content

[@drsysop]

Many use a VPN in UK to watch American Networks to avoid that stupid BBC license they need to pay for to watch with antenna, cable or satellite. I use a VPN to use BBC iPlayer to watch their programming.

All the "services" I've seen on facebook time line spam are illegal here in U.S. The quantity has diminished somewhat over time. There again, I've never seen anything good promoted by time line spam.

I waited and now some streaming providers offered discounts, HBO max , hulu , and paramount ,thst comes with being a Walmart member, this comes to 12 bucks a month,total ,with ads , big deal , I watch cbs , NBC, ABC, fox , PBS, cw , and about 20 other channels for free , I have to move my indoor antenna occasionally because of weather but I'm saving hundreds by not getting greedy cable, im eating steak instead of bologna and eating lobster bisque instead of Ramen, I have a 4 tv setup all on antennas sure I don't get all the live sports , it's not the end of the world

[@thesmashtvnetwork]

some what your saying is true and not correct fcc made it clear that we can legal broadcast any channel for free justt can not charge for it as side from that it is 100% illegal to do this so so as long your not selling it it legal to rebroad cast at lest in my county and thsi apply to the us to company will lie and say it not but it is legal

No

No IPTV-branded service or service stating its IPTV is legal.

$0. I don't pay for TV. I use an antenna.

[@rogersowers9837]

I just bought a portable t.v. 5 inch to try to get local nbc that dish removed 10days ago....I can not pick up any stations even with a car antenna on the car roof and on the highest hill. But when I first used it I got 12 channel's that was as clear as dish or cable......which I never had before with 30 years of buying pocket t.v. I tried using indoors antenna on 4 t.v sets.. all new models and can't even get snow on them.....I live down in a valley type areas. Is there any real indoor antenna that works?

[@tompsheridantsheridant7354]

You will need a converter to get HDTV Signals

[@rogersowers9837]

@@tompsheridantsheridant7354 I don't watch a lot of t.v.....but I found a $15 indoor antenna works fine.....(outside my window) and I think the $30 PVR CONVERTER should be fine.. time to Ditch the dish....5 weeks without NBC... until now because of the small antenna I just got...better then cable.

[@old-mtl-guy]

Whats happening, now that millions of people curt the cord for other streaming options, is these other streaming services are getting more expensive or making their base packages so bad that the user needs to upgrade to a better package to get decent channels. I also see a lot of streaming services that offer a pretty lousy base package and A-La-Carte addons for specific channels they might want to add like sports addons or movie channels, even local channels...it is getting close to the point where it costs as much as cable or satellite TV to get a decent legal streaming service.

[@misqpl]

if some one is using IPTV it is for over seas tv , not local tv and if they are well, they are paying for some thing they could get for free.

[@Dee--Jay]

Illeagal tv is the best way

Question Tyler is thetvapp legal?

[@AntennaMan]

No, it's an illegal IPTV stream.

[@davidfraher1292]

@@AntennaMan thanks for the warning I wish there’s a way chances are not happening because major networks are too greedy but someone make a app like TuneIn but for television and stream every local channels in the country legally of course block out local sporting events when you not in area and watch free TV I live in a area that antenna don’t work at all and in a household that refuses to let me get an outdoor antenna

[@rkmklz7562]

I agree with U....a good Antenna also a good Satellite TV Dish 📡 is far better than any streaming....I used Antennas and Dishes in California.....I would get a lot.of TV live....it was great....but I had to get rid of the Antennas and Dishes... because I moved by the rules I could not use antenna of any kind.....I would go back to antennas and Dishes in a Heartbeat!!!!...And dump The Internet TV...at once!!!

[@sabertoothbaseball3432]

We cut the cord and went with a good quality antenna that brings in 75-80 channels, and still there isn't anything worth watching other than retro shows from the 1950s and 1960s.

Free is it always the best😂

Is Knuvision a legitimate IPTV service?

[@WashinDC]

I've used iptv for more than 5 years I've never had any problems or issues with neither my internet provider nor my country, forcing the word illegal to something who is not illegal for the consumers is not a good start "antenna man" for everyone here thinking about having an iptv sub on their device, I'd suggest you to buy from iptvpeak .com they're one of the best iptv service provider worldwide

Streaming is becoming a nuisance now, streaming services are now defrauding Americans now. At this point it should be a choice especially when streaming services now force arbitration.

And watching a stream - even if it’s unauthorized by the copyright holder - doesn’t technically violate these rights. There have been numerous challenges and interpretations as copyright law has adapted to the internet, but this reading has essentially held true.

You should have said that it's illegal in USA... For other countries, check local laws.

A friend of mine let me try their IPTV. It always came in choppy if it loaded at all. My friend pays for IPTV so I honestly never even considered it might be illegal because he was paying for it and I don't think he knows either. Guess I know who to share this video with....

large cable companies cannot expect their cash cow to live forever without competition. Profits are out of this world because of the marketing and packages. They have to be a little more reasonable.

[@jerryknightse]

Tyler, Thanks for calling this out; there was a KZbin video showing something else and they mentioned a source for TV. I saw right away that it offered a lot of premium services for free, So OF COURSE it is ILLEGAL people! Some people think it is ok. It's NOT and they could be fined or charged with a crime. Thanks again.
