I get the feeling that companies don’t understand the reason behind, ”cutting the cord”, it wasn’t the actual cable/satellite that was the problem.
Only available for T-Mobile customers. Ive lost interest.
T-Mobile today announced the launch of new streaming service options that include TVision LIVE, VIBE, and CHANNELS, all of which work with a new TVision Hub.
TVision LIVE is priced between $40 and $60 per month and offers up live news, sports, and other content along with on-demand TV shows and 100 hours of cloud DVR. Full details on all of the available channels can be found on T-Mobile's website.

TVision VIBE is priced at $10 per month and offers over 30 channels from the "most-watched networks on TV" with thousands of shows on demand. TVision Channels allows users to create their own unique mix of channels by subscribing to existing services through T-Mobile at prices starting at $5.99 per month, with support for STARZ, SHOWTIME, and EPIX at launch.

According to T-Mobile, TVision is available exclusively to T-Mobile postpaid customers, with TVision content available on Apple and Android mobile devices, Apple TV, smart TVs, and the TVision HUB, T-Mobile's version of a TV dongle complete with remote.

As a perk for TVision subscribers, T-Mobile is offering customers who sign up for the TVision Live TV+ or Live Zone options ($50 and $60 per month, respectively) a free year's subscription of Apple TV+ along with an option to purchase an Apple TV 4K for $99, which is an $80 savings after a rebate.

TVision launches on November 1, and the Apple TV+ deal is available starting on that date through December 31.

It doesn't require their own box, there are apps.Doesn't really offer anything the other guys don't have. Nice effort though. Sucks that it requires their own set top box.
And you'll most likely be able to sign into the stand-alone apps just like you can with Xfinity / Charter / YouTube TV / Hulu Live.It doesn't require their own box, there are apps.
Are you able to combine the VIBE and LIVE subscriptions?
LIVE is missing all of the channels that VIBE has.
If it weren't for sports I wouldn't watch TV live at all.I am surprise that in 2020 anyone will be exited about live tv.
AT&T WatchTV had a way better lineup than both for $15, shame they stopped offering it standalone. I still get it through my parents' phone plan.Assuming it allows authentication with network apps I might drop Philo ($20/mo, 63 channels) for Vibe ($10/mo + tax, 34 channels)... save a few bucks. We never watch live TV... it's all about the on-demand for us. Vibe still has the major networks we watch.

I was on DirecTV NOW (now AT&T TV NOW) for like $35/mo (early adopter). It had a crazy 120+ channels and HBO for $5/mo but, as always, the price kept going up and I had to cancel. It was good while it lasted although it was pretty hit-and-miss for network app authentication, which sucked.AT&T WatchTV had a way better lineup than both for $15, shame they stopped offering it standalone.

Sounds great except for the WAF and complications to get the DVR into the picture especially when you add all the other services. My wife loves the cooking shows on off brand PBS, regular PBS, Cooking Channel, Food TV, sometimes Vice. It just gets messy.Try Locast, it’s free local channels.
Unfortunately they’re offering basically the same thing as the cable company, with pricing starting in the $30-$40 range, for something you want, bundled with a lot of crap you don’t. If they’d offer a la carte and let me get just a couple of channels I do want (not sports, not premium) for $10-$20, I might be interested. Until that becomes a possibility these are all just a rehash of cable services, which many of us left for a reason.Competition is good... give the cable monopoly a run for their money
Locast is only available in a handful of cities.Try Locast, it’s free local channels.
You got it right... short for "Quick Bites", I think. Quick failure.Next Quibi. Not sure if that’s the right spelling, but don’t want to bother looking up the exact name of a failed venture![]()
