Are you able to have the service on unlimited devices? I have an ONN device on 4 TVs, and just pay the one fee.



4kmedia.watch is the other provider. This one has literally everything. It's organized as well.

Do you need to use a VPN - not sure how ISP's view these IPTV providers.

I work in the pay TV biz and we all knew google was taking a bath on YTTV and tried to get as many customers on at the cheap rate at first.

It needs to be around $100 to break even so it will continue to go up every year around $8-10


FYI DIRECTV stream has unlimited dvr. It’s no longer $10 a month

Only use YTTV for college basketball/football.

Was hoping the standalone espn app would have been released by now.

Which VPN are you using? I'm thinking of setting up Plex with IPTV on a spare computer.

Below is what I see for DTV Stream. Definitely not cheaper than YTTV even with the pending $10 increase


CHOICE™

$79.99/mo.

Unlimited cDVR: included

Gemini Air device | Qty: 1: included

Advanced Receiver Service Fee: $15.00/mo.

Regional Sports Fee: $15.99/mo

Not sure if mentioned already but you can start the cancel process on YTTV's website and they will offer you 6 more months at the current price. That's what I did

Not true. All of those stations are on DTVStream. Source: I have the service and it is great.

Does this work similar to YTTV in that i can have multiple people watch on different TVs or is that extra? I have tenants and with YT, i gave them their own login. I am paying about $115 which includes an HBO package with Starz and SHO.

Do you have an AMEX Plat? You get $20 per month to spend on some different options and Hulu/Dis is one of the choices. I have Hulu+ and Disney+ with no ads and basically $.94/month haha

Just make sure to select “Cost” as the reason you’re cancelling and it should work

Actually, get on chat and ask for a "retention discount". I've read where folks didn't get the offer just going to cancel.

Youtube ads have gotten much worse lately.


Yeah, to the point that I got Youtube premium, and dropped Youtube TV. Maybe not what they were hoping for. Podcasts are a lot more interesting to me that conventional TV.

Sorry for so many questions, but I do have just a couple more. How does IPTV work if you want it on multiple devices? Is that extra per device? How did you setup your VPN to handle it - just installed on each device? Thanks so much for your help!

I have the VPN setup on the ONN device. As for multiple devices for IPTV, just use the same Playlist for each device. You don't pay extra.

Thanks. Reading over 4kmedia dot tech, I found that they have multi connection plans, but you're saying you can just do the $99/year plan and steam on multiple devices at once?

I had reached out to them and they wanted me to install ibo player and provide them a Mac address, so that seems like it locks it down to a device.
