No longer do I freak out because my TVs are blasting out 20mbps 1080p uncompressed HD! ITS FREE! frick OFF COMCAST. dad is no longer running around the house 'turning off all the running tv faucets'.

I never made the connection that each 'channel' i would pull in had multiple sub-channels. Here's an actual look at what I'm getting right now.

LINK



mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the OTA!

comcast can die in a damn fire because between this and my ever growing plex library i'm going to be pumping free local HD and "cad-flix plex" movies and saving my precious TB data cap for select new content.


oh and i unapologetically grabbed 40GB of SUNRISE EARTH which is pretty much every single episode.

this is what greets me in the mornings on my TV in the kitchen now.


THIS IS HOW YOU CUT THE CORD MOTHERfrickERS

espn
netflix
comcast 'hd fees shithole frick shite'

a little upfront costs to get the equipment going and i'm all free going forward.

eta PLEX GRID VIEW LIVE!

Maybe you should calm down a little. OTA is all what you are saying it is.

hmmm, i wonder if its using some cached cookies or something.

do you see wsmv 2 as the first channel?

eta yep, that must be it. This is in the header above that channel guide. Sorry I thought it was using some data from antennaweb to pull that listing.

quote:

If no cookie is present when you visit TitanTV, your location is determined by the ZIP Code of your internet service provider and the channel lineup most frequently used by other TitanTV members in that area is displayed by default. If no member data is available, TitanTV then displays a New York lineup by default.

I’ve done this before. It’s cheaper to just pay for cable in the long run.

PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME. I'm paying $49/mo right now for 125mbps comcast internet.

Before the minimum package i could get from comcast when you factor in bullshite like 'local station fees' and 'local sports fees' and 'dvr rental fees' and 'premium hd technology fees' was $135/mo.

so thats $85/mo more x 12 months = $1,020.00

you mean to tell me catching 4-5 LSU games a year broadcast on espn costed you more than $1,000?

that must have been a helluva parish ghost and wing order.

I'm visiting my wife's family in California, and the guide shows 57 channels, including some that surely aren't available OTA, eh?

ESPN, ESPN2, AMC, Bravo, HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, Encore, Starz, etc., etc...

i'm excited about 100% free HD & DVR solution for 46 channels I didn't have 3 days ago in a "netflix friendly" UX that my wife already understands and is using.

its a beautiful solution.

see above. its using a local cookie on my PC passed over to it from antennaweb.

if you want to see what you can get there, go to antennaweb.og, type in your current address and hit 'go'.

when it displays the satellite icon, click the 'titantv' link to get the details of those OTA stations and that will be specific to your address.
