Thank you

And people on here still don't get the fact that you have to pay for broadband to watch anything that is streamed and that includes Freely

So can somebody please tell me how much it costs them to have "Freely"

I stream to my laptop via my phone 4G/5G when working away from home where no free wifi is available. You don't have to pay for broadband to watch anything that is streamed.

Do you want me to include my monthly Electricity direct debit aswell?

Obviously you can’t watch the free streaming service without an electric contract.

OK let's look at this another way. Do you agree this has always been hyped up as being revolutionary, to be able to have all freeview channels on the same EPG whereas BT/EE already does this since they launched their Youview Pro Box?

It is potentially revolutionary in the sense that it wouldn't involve signing up to a contract on one SPECIFIC isp, on a SPECIFIC upgrade, using SPECIFIC proprietary hardware.

Starting to get it yet?

It has potential. Not yet realised.

I'd go along with that Meantime until the likes of Sony or Samsung use it 'built in' or otherwise I wont be using it and I can't see any long queue of people outside of Currys yet Looking forward to customer reviews too.

Edit to add: I daresay they'll be all over it in Hull though (such a weird setup with no Openreach at all)
