It sounds like CBS has a solid app there. I might check it out later today after I get home from my shift at DISH. It better offer some special features if it wants to compete, because I don’t have room on my phone for an app from over 250 networks that I subscribe to. I’d rather have just one app that streams all of my live TV channels and DVR recordings too; that’s what I have with my DISH Anywhere app. It’s awesome; last week I took my son to the doctor’s office, and it was pretty crowded. We didn’t mind, because we passed the time by watching Nick JR until it was our turn with the doc.

It was not sized for iPads though. I installed the new one. It locked up. Might have been my internet.

Of course, It didn’t have Person of Interest to view on demand. I missed the last episode because of ball games being on it being moved to wee hours of the morning. So, if I have to buy something to record shows they don’t stream, why do I need this? Sigh. When are they going to realize that while some will probably never get high speed internet, most peoples viewing habits have changed.

One has to be very daft and oblivious to environmental changes. Another newspaper type company in the making.

Let us consume media when we want it and how we want it delivered.

CBS has repeatedly proven that it hasn’t got the first clue how to deliver a good streaming experience.

They’ve repeatedly shown that they don’t understand how to deliver a good viewing experience on streaming devices.
