    I'm still confused what that thing is... If I can't get local channels or stuff like AMC, I don't think it would benefit me.

    It is one way the Europeans are sticking it to the man.

    Basically its like having all the cable you want, and not paying for it. Every NFL game is yours, any movie channel like HBO. It is pretty sweet really. I pay Verizon for the internet and that is it. I have my data encrypted so big brother can't catch me too.

    Really need to look into this.

    Is it every bit as reliable? Let's say I'm watching a Titans game... Is there any chance I get shafted and lose service?

    I am still tooling with it. Some streams are better than others, but you can stop and come back to it as well- pause, take a piss, and start right back up. I don't have the time at the moment to go into detail, but I will come back to this and give you some better detail- so much access! If you google it, you can find sights that go into great detail with trouble shooting and things of that nature...encryption and the like. I am not a gamer, but you can do that as well. G BOX Q. You can find ones for sale that are ready to go from moment of purchase (downloads completed for you)- prices at around $160 for those. Clean units sell for around $100.

    From what I've read, it's not user-friendly. Definitely have to play with it and treat it as a computer with the proper updates and whatnot.

    The system works just fine for me. Live Television shows not so much, but give it 12 hours and they are gold. I don't watch a whole lot of live television anyway. The sports feeds are incredible, and there are multiple feeds to choose from, you just have to find the best one for you. I use KODI as my interface, Tomato Firm Ware with a flash router for encryption, and PIA for VPN (virtual private network- cost $60 a year). You can look into KODI banned addons for downloads (sports devil, genesis, popcorn time, etc). At some point the cable companies will charge for data use, but at the moment you can save a sh*t ton of money and get a great experience.

    Download KODI to your PC and then google KODI tv addons. See if you like it.
