Dish started preventing you from muting or skipping though commercialson their app a while back before I dumped their ****faces (of course, you could at least mute your device).... surprised that's not more of a thing, but probably the future.

I don't think boycotting will work. I do believe many casuals will just choose not to watch. My friends who are fans of other teams will not watch. They love football and will watch most playoff games, but they're not going to go through the hassle to pay for this. Let's be real if this were any other playoff game most of us will choose not to watch. And that's just such a bizarre move for a game that has so much intrigue

Three years ago CBS started pulling their feed from DTV and Dish during the season and it motivated me to upgrade our antennas. Now I prefer to watch programming off of the antenna since the picture is so good and actually significantly better than streaming or the satellite options. |

Agreed with HemiEd. Anything local, I do with an antenna. AND there is no lag. I am close enough to the transmitters that I started with a paper clip or small thin wire in the antenna port to get stations. As more have been added, have purchased decent antennas, especially for the basement.

Before long everyone will need a subscription to nfl plus, paramount, peacock, espn plus, Amazon, and hulu to watch games.

Yeah, it has been quite a journey for us, being about 60 miles from the stations. I have evolved as the need has increased to having three antennas of high quality going now. One for the Firetv recast box, one for the guest bedrooms and one for mine and the Mrs. sets. The more sets you have hooked up to an antenna, the more the division of signal strength I went the route with amplifiers and pole rotators. but that ended up sucking. Had one with rotation built in, but it is now on a shelf in the garage as it was a POS. Granted, even with 23 channels received, there is no Netflix, Amazon, Max etc., we still have to stream those. But the Mrs. gets her network programs and there is a lot of interesting, fun programming, like 2 1/2 men reruns. |

Just noticed the first really shitty thing about Peacock. I noticed last night that they had old Law and Order episodes, but when I checked it out I found that they only have the last few seasons.
No Angie Harmon or Jill Hennessy? **** you! |

I stream most of what I watch, except sports. So, it's really just a matter of time before all sports will be streamed as well. It is what it is.

And yet all of those combined would still be far less expensive than a typical cable subscription, which is necessary to watch Monday Night Football alone.
