What happened to the thread about the Playstation Vue streaming service?

I was looking forward too but I think he didn't want to get in trouble by not being in that paticular city's zip code. Anybody else that does it give us a review because I think the playstation vue is cool.

Thanks for all the info and that is understandable being you are not in that zip code location for the local channels but get a $7 antenna from radio shack and get all the local channels. I am very interested in getting it and my wife would be very happy having live bravo and E!.

I have no clue why channels (outside of the locals) are not available when it says they are.

So... You are trying to use their service in a way it is not meant to be used and don't understand why it doesn't work right?

I'm just curious why certain channels aren't available

Didn't Direct TV have to make deals in all the individual local markets before they could offer the OTA networks? I wouldn't be surprised if ABC New York for example isn't allowed to "broadcast" in other regions.

So they're supposed to be on your plan but blocked "in your area"? Are you using a VPN or something that would make you appear to be somewhere else like outside the US? If not I could see those cable channels having some sort of non compete clause with the cable providers in your area. It's ridiculous that I can't watch the Pelicans on NBA League Pass because I live in the team's home area. But that's the deal they made with local Fox Sports affiliate.

You are the man thanks for trying this out and I can't wait till it comes to our area and I will definitely try it out.

Interesting...

I'm about to make a thread with some details in it.

Unfortunately I can't try it out because I used my free trial, and I'm not blowing $30 and not liking it
