Does anyone know if I were to sign up for the free 7 day trial and cancel the trial before it ends, would I still be eligible to sign up for the 3 month package with the $35 locked in rate?

You can do a free trial but you will have to cancel that account and create a new one with the alternate email to get the free Apple TV. It happened to me this morning

I have PS Vue right now and they seem to go off of IP address. Is DTVNOW set up the same way. In other words, could I take my Fire TV or Apple to to a friends house and use it there?

No IP address involved. You can bring your device anywhere you want I would imagine

Do you have to login with an email address and password each time you access DTVNOW?

I took my tablet to a friends house and used Sony Vue. But I got a message saying that "you are not using your home network so you will get a limited choice of channels". WTF if I pay and you give me the ability of an ap but not get all the benefits.

No, it keeps you logged in.

The Tablo would only allow you to record live TV right? am I missing anything else it does?

Once again TD reaches its hands deep into my wallet

Let's say my daughter is watching something through the Disney Jr app and not the DirecTV Now app....does that count as a stream?

no

Hell, if that's the case then the 2 streams is fine for my needs.

Yeah I do like it. Just one more option to the ones cutting the cord.

I really wish there was a setting to turn off the swipe left/right to change Channels. Every time I reach for the remote I accidentally change the channel

Yeah that's the only thing I hate about the Apple TV remote. It should work for the favorite channels imo. I love how the interface isn't cluttered with tabs and nonsense.

When I first saw the remote I thought I had to buy those batteries that you use in hearing aids . A remote that I can actually charge without stumbling all over the place looking for batteries

Anyone having voice sync issues with fire stick? Fire TV is working great but when I try it with the stick the picture is choppy and the sound is out of sync with the picture.
