We typically use our streaming TV for a couple of hours every day. We can change the reception to broadcast quickly and easily but we don't. We can select what we want to see at any time and not just watch what is being sent out. It is true that once we fasten onto a program that we enjoy, we do tend to tune in at the same time each evening but we have lots of choices. The regular broadcast tv offers over a hundred channels but we tend to like the streaming choices more.
We have used our Roku streamer for maybe ten years. The other day, it stopped working. I replaced it with a new one but that means that the channels and services we stream have got to be convinced that we are indeed the same subscribers as before. In other words, we needed to get into password wrestling. I guess some streaming channels could make customers happy but giving us a safe-word that we could supply to be identified as continuing, honest, reliable, sturdy continuing customers.
We mostly watch Netflix, Amazon tv, Acorn, and Wisconsin Public TV. The first three got connected to our new equipment fairly quickly and easily but Wis PBS is still hanging. It seems correct to say that the programs are split into the group that we can simply tune into and the other group. To view that one, we need to have a "passport". We earned the passport by Lynn making regular contributions to Wis PBS but we are having trouble getting identified as having done that.
