Hey, I had Dirrectv for 13 years and became a cord cutter. Why not, I'm already paying for Internet and Cell phone data. An ice storm took out my house antenna but I still get a few channels. I need to buy another home antenna. I use an app called LiveStream to watch a couple of my local news staions live.
I do have Verizon, so I get some NFL games on the NFL mobile app for free.
I use Netflix, Crackle and YouTube and cast them to ChromeCast. I wish Google would quit dragging their feet on adding more devices to screen mirror to it. I also rent movies from VuDu.
I also download movies and my favorite TV shows and use Real Cloud Player app. Oh yeah, I cant leave out my Twit Cast app where I watch Leo Laporte and staff for my tech fix and my Double Twist Podcast player. All of them I stream to my Chromecast.
I also use a Miracast dongle to screen mirror my phone and it works ok, but it lags and skips while sending live streams.
There are apps on my Blu Ray Player that I use.
Here is the most recent thing. I found an app called Live USA channels and it has you download MX player. I'm not to sure how they get away with it without paying rebroadcasting fees or how long it will be around without getting pulled down. I noticed there are many apps just like it but I don't know what content or channels they carry. It has a bunch of stations like ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, NFL Network, FOX, CW, FX USA, AMC, USA Network, TNT, Discovery Channel, TBS, HBO, MTV, ESPN, ESPN2, NBA TV, TLC, FOX Sports, National Geographic channel, TSN, Fox News, A&E, ABC Family, Animal Planet, SyFy, Bravo, and 66 other channels in which some are from other countries but some are good ones like a bunch of Sky sports and Sky movies. I had to go into my MX player and unclick some of the decoder settings to get it to work, not sure if it would have worked without unchecking them.
Any other thoughts or suggestions?
