Capitalism (IE false flag socialism) sucks donkey balls.

Congrats on realizing this.

As in selling it?

Guess that means it could get worse.

The customer service call center(s) is the worst on our planet.
They went from being the best to being the absolute worst!! Nine times out of ten, I get someone that barely speaks english. When I do get someone that speaks clear english, I get transferred to a different department. The last person I spoke with told me their call center is in the Philippines.

I had eternal TV that is basically the same as TPK. I wonder how TPK is staying up considering the law shut down a ton of IPTV services/domain this past week. First time in 3 yrs I haven't had any NFL ticket through it. Just the Redzone.

Mines works just fine, infact I'm watching it now.

I was thinking about using a VPN for a local Dallas server (I'm in the northeast) and then getting Youtube live TV. This way I could get the local Fox and CBS stations and not need Sunday Ticket anymore.

I don't consider that stealing, because I'll be paying for the service, I will just be masking my location. Anyone do it that way and how are the results?

Company buys competitor. Company runs acquired company into the ground.

Competition problem solved.

Do you happen to have that email address handy??
Been a ST subscriber since 1999. Got it free last year, somehow. Of course, nothing's free. Sports pack went up $10/month later on. Delta was--- I saved about $240. I got to the "Loyalty Department" (a total oxymoron) 4 weeks ago, asked for a discount. The manager was jocular, polished, real fast talker, told me I was in good hands, she'd look at my account and call me next a.m. She called me and said my credits expired in October, to call her back after November 1 and she would "see what they could do."
Moral is, AT&T is a corporate python that swallows smaller things. Spits them out if they aren't right. Pure and simple. This wont end well and I suspect it is my last go round with Sunday Ticket.

Yep. IMO that acquisition never should have been allowed in the first place.

Anyway, I've had and enjoyed DirecTV for over 20 years now. Never had this horrendous customer service -- among other issues -- until ATT bought them. If they divest I think the company will, or can, come back.

I streamed the MIA game from Reddit and it was wonderful. Great picture, real-time, lovely.

I get 210 channels and watch about five of them. I look forward to future of Disney +, Apple +, etc.

You had the NFL Ticket this weekend? Awesome. I went to their site and there is no where to sign up. Can't sign up on Sapphire either. Any IPTV that had been using xtremecodes has had some channels shut down. I guess it varies in countries/areas. But, if TPK is using the xtremecodes software. It won't be long. Some other stuff will pop up though.

There’s no app, just use this link.

https://www.reddit.com/r/nflstreams

Around 10 minutes before the game there will be links to the Cowboys game. You may need to close a few pop-ups but after that it’s smooth sailing.
I thought you mentioned you were watching through your Apple TV though?

I was looking for a way to watch on my tv without connecting my computer.

Yeah, with Apple TV I can stream whatever I’m doing on my iPhone to my TV.

But I’m still pulling up the Reddit stream with my iPhone, you can use your computer for that too.
