Anyone heard about this? This New service is coming to the ATV.

This starting to look like they are doing the metoo kind of thing! Just don’t make the stream abandonware six months from now!

Looks like this service is basically all the channels they now own plus a few others. Why didn’t Apple buy Time Warner Inc again????

Looks like this just went live today

I was offered this through my wireless plan. If you aren’t interested in sports this is perfect. I have an antenna too so this combo will be great I think

"Video streaming is limited to 480p"

Also no DVR.

So you'll be watching blurry SD content with ads.

Sorry, hell no.

I'm interested in hearing how you like it. Is the SD only over cellular? I'm wondering how it looks on the Apple TV if you use your credentials in one of the apps. (SD would be fine for me on my iPad but I would probably use it most on my ATV.)

I am definitely getting HD playback. It is equal to Directvnow in resolution actually. I don’t care about a DVR so that may be an issue for some

Yes I believe the SD is cellular only. I have 2 Apple TV 4’s and the only glitch I have had is the guide froze on the day it was released. It updated the next day and I have not had any issues since. It is equal in picture quality to DNow and Uverse actually. I have not tried using credential for apps but will look at that. It is perfect for me because I don’t care about sports nor a DVR. I have a Hulu no commercials plan and love that

Thanks for your response. Did you get the Unlimited&More (cheaper) plan?

Well I already had an unlimited plan which they renamed Unlimited&More and it is the cheaper plan. I got an email that because of that plan I was eligible for WatchTV so all I had to do was activate. They are supposed to add a few more channels I think but I don’t know when.

Great! Thank you!
