IDK, last time I used Amazon or Hula they wanted $ per movie. Has that changed?


Amazon prime comes with some movies, others are about what Redbox costs. I use Hulu mostly for network shows I'm behind on, in today's case Wayward Pines, which is up to 6 episodes and I'm now on 4.

All of the seasons of The Sopranos are on Amazon Prime so I'm working my way through the series. True Detective and Game of Thrones are a must too. Other than that and baseball there won't be anything decent on until October outside of football.

Game of Thrones a free A Prime series?

And I'll definitely have to go down the Sapranos road. I never did but always wanted to watch it.

I do the exact same thing however I just bought this tivo OTA(over the air) and now have all the dvr functions on my antenna channels. I can pause live tv, set recordings using tivo's guide and if you puurchase it for the $399 price tag there isn't a monthly fee for the service. You can buy the box for $49 if you want to pay $15 a month for the service. I absolutely love the tivo service I got all my shows on demand again just like when I had Directv. The box has Netflix, Hulu, Pandora etc as well which has caused me to turn my Roku on much less frequently. I would strongly recommend looking into it.
You can plug in an external hard drive into cheaper options too. That's what I do.

No, those two shows aren't on Amazon Prime. I have a friend's account info to watch HBO Go.

Did several Fringe binges, wife finished the show before I did while I was working out of town, then never bothered to finish.

Was pretty good to start though.


Give everything time, the cable companies will have to go a la carte before to long from market pressure. Already seeing it happen, HBO, CBS, etc.

All a matter of what you like. I enjoyed it and loved the final episode . To bad it only lasted one season.

Yeah, that's an option. However, you lose a lot of the functionality and convenience of an actual DVR. My tivo has everything in one spot and is so simple. I couldn't imagine a hard drive being even close to as simple. I would check into the Tivo if I were you, you wouldn't regret it. For $400 you would be set and have a lot more functionality. Look at some of the reviews on amazon and check it out.

I will check it out, nothing else is calling out and have seen a lot/ Maybe that Everglades show NEPats mentioned and some people mentioned the blacklist. Killing wasnt bad and the guy that had the basketball team kinda was supposed to be a young Paul Allen

I saw they had a deal for a lifetime of service for $350. I just don't want to spend that kind of money on anything like that.

I watch the NFL RedZone..... and yes it's just the music.

I like to keep it on just in case the season inexplicably starts months early.

I'm with you on that one. I remember when I got sat. radio, I had a chance to buy it for life for a few hun. and passed. Now I wished I had, I still use it regularly and have gone way beyond the buy price with my monthly fees.

Usually I don't miss the nfl too much from February til June because I have the NBA, CBB, & tv shows to watch. However during June & July tv is trash since the only sport on is baseball & all my shows are done until the fall. NFL training camp can't start any sooner

I used to have satellite radio and liked it for the most part. Raw Dog Comedy is awesome.
