Quote from: Ed Vette on March 15, 2024, 07:53:24 AMI'm wondering how Apple and Netflix would allow this. Does it have all the channels that YouTube TV has like the NFL Channel? Seems to me it's an illegal Box but how could it be out there for so long.
Yeah, seems to good to be true....

I really can't give you a reason how it works. I did read that the laws regarding streaming is somewhat of a gray area. One thing about this box is you can't download or record any of the live shows. You can't pause or rewind the shows. So live is live. The video on demand allows you to pause or rewind etc but no recording is allowed. If I come across a movie that is already playing on an hbo starz station and I want to watch it I will go to the video on demand and 95% of the time it will be there. I don't worry about whether or not I'm violating any streaming rules. I don't normally question the legality of products I purchase on Amazon.

I'm going to say I can get anything you can get on YouTube TV. NFL channel. Espn. ESPN2. SNY. NESN. MSG.

I am pretty sure that local broadcast stations or free to anyone who can get the local stations so now I watch Giants games on a local NY station.

I think that every day. But until someone tells me that I'm not supposed to use it I'm enjoying the hell out of it.  I have been using it for several months now.

@Bill Brown do you know what the differences are between the SB4 and SB5?

Not really sure. I asked my son in law about the 5 (he also bought a 4 after seeing mine) and I believe he said more storage and maybe faster processor. He said it wouldn't help us. I'm sure you can get to Google and use the internet but I've never played with that feature. Again  the reason I bought this box was to get Giants games. Everything else is gravy. The video on demand is where I make the most use of it. I am just finishing the 10 part Dynasty series about the Patriots run that was put out by Apple.

When I went to Amazon to get this box they were selling superbox4 and superbox3. Now they show 4 and 5s but the 4s are almost gone today.

Only works on the TV it's attached to.

We started it this week too. I like Tia Leone since Family Man.

 Just finished season 2 of True Detective and liked it very much. As I said, I really disliked season 1 but stuck it out and decided to try season 2 and was pleasantly surprised with a good show. Looking forward to starting season 3.

Is she in this, or are you thinking of Madam Secretary?

Ed. Are you still watching this? We have watched 4 episodes so far and really enjoy it. Miss Zott is a very unique lady.

We finished it. Good but a short series.
