Motortrend TV- worth it or not?

[lemmingjames]

Pretty much self explanatory, is motortrend tv worth paying for?

And would you go for 1/3/12 month sub package?

Could you smash out most of the content in a month? Does it get updated regularly etc.? I pay for nowtv and hardly watch it anymore so just wonder if motortrend would end up in the same boat?

I am ready to let my subscription expire.

It has declined greatly over the last couple of years. They seem to have dropped/lost rights to many of the shows they once had and their new content is focused mostly on what I call "meathead"-style programming with an overemphasis on the Roadkill franchise and lots of the usual fake-drama/poor-comedy car shows. They do carry some of the collector car auctions if you are into that though I have soured on those because to too much hype over some very pedestrian vehicles. One thing I will give them credit for is carrying some live content such as this past weekend with the Historic Monaco GP event but there was no commentary which made it somewhat difficult to watch.I think they are struggling financially and have had to trim things back greatly.

Fair enough, I'm just interested in the kindig type of programming and the Kevin Hart American muscle.

I've been watching some of the youtubers of the American barn find variety but missing the pistache of kindig.

So probably just worth the month sub?

Depends on how often you watch and for how long.

There's a pretty hefty back catalogue of roadkill/hotrod/ded/etc if you've not already seen them.

I got a year for pretty cheap ages ago, but a lot of it wasn't available over here, thrashed out the good stuff and didn't renew.

It's been a few years so I'm about due another viewing, I think you can add it on to Amazon Prime for a couple of quid a month.

Thanks for the heads up on the amazon link, 7 day free trail then £4 a month.
