    I love Vue! I've had it for a couple months now and it's really good. They finally got CSNNW added to my lineup so I can finally watch the games! I was getting tired of watching crappy online streams.

    Viva La Piracy. Vue and Sling are just cable bundles with a different distribution method.

    Viacom networks by tier:

    **ACCESS
    MTV
    MTV2
    Nickelodeon
    Nick Jr.
    Nicktoons
    VH1
    Comedy Central
    Spike
    TV Land
    BET

    **ELITE
    MTV Live
    MTV Classic
    MTVU
    Logo TV
    NickMusic
    CMT
    CMT Music

    If someone has kids then Nickelodeon is a big deal. I personally don't have the package at all because I don't have a local zip code or IP so I don't believe I would get CSN.

    Some of that can be replaced for free with Crackle.

    Crackle probably has almost as many movies as Netflix does now. I heard something like Netflix has under 1000 movies in their catalog now. They lose more movies each month then they add. They have a shitton of TV shows though. It seems like it is 90% of their catalog now.

    I'm trying Vue next week. I hear we don't get locals though. I'm thinking Amazon Fire stick or Fire TV. Any suggestions?

    I currently have xfinity internet at 25mbps.

    Crappy internet streams are really tough to watch, and I can reduce my Dish network enough to pay for Vue, getting all the games and some new channels/movies seems like a no brainer to me.

    @HCP didn't you order it? Sounded like your family was in a similar situation as mine.

    I just got finished with my trail of Vue using the Firestick and the quality is great. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out how to cancel the Vue payment before it hit my bank account so I got charged. I will use it for the rest of the 30 days and see if I like it. The great thing about the Firestick, if your tech savvy, is that you can sideload a pretty cool app on it to watch pretty much whatever you want. Might not be worth the hassle if you already have Dish though.

    Do you guys get local channels live up there like ABC/NBC on Vue? We don't down here, of course.

    Would Vue give me access to Blazers game from California? What's the cost? How would I do this? I have a PS4.

    You should be able to put your zip code in somewhere on the Playstation site to see what channels you get, I live on the Cali-Oregon border and get it, but idk how far south that's the case.

    My wife just got a call from Comcast and they gave us 200mbps, cable, streampix, and HBO $80/month. Looks like that is their basic "ooh you drive a hard bargain" deal now :)

    Question: the rep said I could watch the Blazers on Streampix; is that confirmed?
