This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

They don't use a channel guide by raygun

This might be because they are trying to drive everyone to streaming, or because they figure with search the channel guide is moot.

They way they have implemented it from a live TV standpoint is that I can go into my live TV section and see what is on TV now and next. There isn't the concept of looking at what is on ABC Thursday at 7PM. I'm guessing that is because you basically tell it what you like and it will record it for you so there is no need to plan out your TV viewing schedule.

The only complaint I have about their cloud DVR now is that I can't see across all profiles where there are shows to clean up. I have to go into everyone in the families profile to clear things out.

The good news is that they are still making changes and improvements and I would expect that to happen. For instance, up until about four months ago any time you added a TV show to My Stuff it automatically recorded it whenever it was on. Now they give you more options to choose whether or not to record it and if you record it to only get new episodes.

I actually watch less of the live TV now and do more streaming. The only time we'll watch live TV is for sports or maybe when my parents are over.
