I like some motor sports, love watching me some rally cross, however that's about it, how about giving us the option of not having sports in our streaming packages and save some cash? I have never and will never watch the NFL or MLB, so why should I be forced to pay for it?
I would love to be able to drop the channels I will never watch, like all those freaking sports channels, as I have never watched them, and delete them when I can from normal view, however I still pay for them due to bundling, even if it only saves like five bucks, I dont watch it, why should I pay for it?
European Union: "We just passed the worst law regarding online content!"
South Africa: "Hold my beer."
What happend is the films and publications amendment bill got passed by South African Parliament, it mearly awaits their President to sign the bill in to law.
Whats the Big Deal?
Any person who knowingly distributes or exhibits in public a film or game without first having been registered with the Film Board as a distributor or exhibitor of films or games shall be guilty of an offence and liable, upon conviction, to a fine not exceeding R150 000 or to imprisonment for a period not exceeding eight months or to both a fine and such imprisonment. It also requires all films to be uploaded to be classified by the film board, without classification, the film is illegal, and this applies to anything uploaded or streamed, including .gifs
Someone should tell these Lawyers (or Judge) to quit Monkeying around, this isn't some Circus, its a court of Law, now at times it may feel like there are an infinite number of Lawyers locked up in a room somewhere banging out the combined works of Shakespeare, but this isn't Monkey business.... hell before you know it someone might go Apeshit and sue everyone.
ah... "Roku's response highlights the SOP approach (somebody else's problem) inherent in the IOT" should be SEP, also the best way to describe this is,
kinda reminds me of this quote... granted it was found on the internet and may or may not be true, but still like it.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." -- Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
Seems they updated it yet again to say you have to opt in to HD video now, but once you do that's it, no recurring need to opt in, after quite a few complaints they decided this would be best... I think I might finally change my plan now, this whole unlimited* thing is annoying though.
Well, I loved the old shows shows they had, Beyond 2000, Wings, there were a few others I don't remember, BUT with them canceling Mythbusters, and unless they bring back B2K and Wings (not that crappy sitcom)... they kind of lost me.
Sportsball... meh
