Irlandesa March 20, 2022 Share March 20, 2022 3 hours ago, peachmangosteen said: Well now I'm wondering why you haven't cut the cord yet lol? Partially lazy but a few reasons: YouTube doesn't have all the channels I get from cable. Things like ION and Lifetime. It's not a big deal most of the year but it'd cut down on my ability to watch (and hate) many of the holiday movies. I also really like the music channels on cable. I like to quickly switch to them during commercials or while working on the computer. I guess those could be replaced with other music streaming services but, like I said, it's usually a quick listen while I'm waiting for a show to get back from commercial. Switching to a new device would be annoying for me. (This is very much a me problem.) There's very little consistency with channels. It feels like they come and go more than they do with cable. I can only rewind within a program. So let's say I am watching a show and miss the final five minutes because someone called me and the channel I'm watching switches to the next show. YouTube TV doesn't let me rewind back into the old show I was watching. If I had paused it, I could finish it but if I didn't think to do so, I'm out of luck (unless it's available On Demand and then I have to content with commercials. My DVR lets me rewind up to 90 minutes or so as long as I'm not coming from another channel. Recording times aren't always kept up-to-date. For instance, I decided to record L&O: SVU because I was watching an episode but couldn't watch the end. And when you decide to record something, you record ALL of the episodes basically. You can't just record one episode unless you record the show and then remove the show from being recorded immediately after. That led me to want to spend some lazy Saturdays watching L&O: SVU episodes I hadn't seen because I'm not a regular viewer of that show the way I am with the original L&O. But USA has a weird late night SVU schedule. My recordings record from 1 a.m. to 2 a.m., for instance, but the show actually runs 1:06-2:04 and the ending gets cut off. Speaking of the DVR, it's unlimited but things disappear after 9 months and they don't re-record until an episode is deleted so access isn't continuous. I still have things my DVR that I don't want to lose. If my DVR were to ever go, that might lead me to cutting the cord. I haven't decided on an alternative internet provider. I'd have to decide how I'm going to supplement what I don't get. Do I subscribe to Peacock (which I now get for free?) Do I do another live TV streaming service to get the channels I don't get with YouTube TV? YouTube TV can be glitchy with my Firestick. I've had to unplug it and replug it in. It's not as smooth as cable which works even when wifi is spotty or slow. I lose the internet more than I lose hard wired cable and my TV relies on the internet. Yeah. So that's probably more than you wanted to know. Some of this is very specific to me. Some of it are things I'm sure others experience. The problem is that I should cut it because the conveniences probably aren't worth the ridiculous cost of cable. It's mainly the internet portion that holds me up. 3 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/15/#findComment-7353345

Yeah, the free trials totally bank on this. But most of the time you can cancel way before the end of the trial and your trial will still go the whole time. So often times I will cancel the day after I sign up for the trial. And I get a little note saying "your trial will expire on XXXX date" (usually after several prompts asking 'do your really want to cancel?' and 'no really, how about you stay for a bit longer?" And sometimes if you are lucky you get an 'ok then, how about if you stay for three more months and we'll only charge you .50 more?' LOL. I figure when that does happen, the pre-emptive cancellation signals some bot that prompts them to extend the trial so I really will forget later. 3 1 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/15/#findComment-7354785

But, again, no way to skip, so I had to randomly pick three shows I'll never watch so it can recommend to me more shows I'll never watch. There is a way around completing that annoying "Pick at least 3 shows" screen: If you're using the app, either on a device (smart TV, Roku, Fire Stick, etc.) or a smartphone/tablet, once you get to the "Pick..." screen, just close the app. The next time the app is opened, the new profile will be the default.

Bastet April 7, 2022 Share April 7, 2022 At least with my Fire stick, I don't even need to get up and unplug it to restart it, I can just do that via the menu. With my parents' smart TV, when the Netflix app decides to be an unresponsive asshole until the TV is reset, that means unplugging the TV for a minute. Okay, but the TV plugs into an outlet that is directly behind where its giant self is mounted on the wall, so that means getting up on top of the entertainment center (which is a solid oak built-in, so at least there's no problem standing on it) to unplug it. Thankfully that doesn't happen very often, but come on, Netflix (no other app has ever needed that solution). 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/15/#findComment-7387673
SunnyBeBe April 8, 2022 Share April 8, 2022 If anyone knows of a way to permanently delete a tv series option from Hulu, please let me know. I hear that the Kardassians realty show is coming soon and I really do not want their show to continuously pop up on my interface. For me it’s revolting and I don’t deserve to be subjected to it. 🤣🙄😩 I watch a lot of Hulu now and would hate to let it go. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/15/#findComment-7389080

Well, their mugs showed up one day when I logged on and I was of the same mind as you. I did NOT want to be constantly bombarded with them. So I clicked the 3 little dots on the title page and there is a thumbs up/thumbs down. I clicked the thumbs down which is a 'DISLIKE' indicator. A note comes up that tells me it will no longer suggest this title for me. So far so good, it has been a couple of weeks and no sign of any Kardashian content has appeared on my suggestions, log in screen, flash screen or any of the featured tiles. 7 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/15/#findComment-7389678

This way you won't have to see anything you're not interested in.

But when you open Hulu it's just the like homepage or whatever and that's where they advertise the shows they want to advertise, which is apparently anything Kardashian related.

Knock on wood but not on my Home Page. I wonder if it matters what kind of shows you watch on Hulu. I don't touch reality shows there. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/15/#findComment-7391036

I don't touch reality shows there. It's not on my homepage either but it obviously is on some others since they've mentioned being annoyed about it. Maybe it does have to do with the other shows you've watched. I'm trying to think if I've ever watched a reality show on there and I don't think I have. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/15/#findComment-7391364

I asked this question on the free streaming thread too, but no one has posted there since November 2020, so I'm asking here too: Has anyone had the search function disappear from the YouTube app on their TV today? (Mine's a Roku TV.) ETA: I got a response on the other thread that YouTube is having issues.

Maybe I'm just lucky? Maybe it has to do with my using a Roku device to access Hulu? Of course, I've probably just jinxed myself and they'll be in my recommendations when I turn it on tonight.

SunnyBeBe April 15, 2022 Share April 15, 2022 The Kardashians new show was on my Hulu homepage, however, after I clicked on it and disliked it, it went away and it disappeared from my other 2 Firesticks too. Same Hulu account. I was pleasantly surprised. I don’t watch reality shows on Hulu, but it was initially on my homepage, nonetheless.
