Got a subscription today because Silo looks like it’s right down my alley. 2 hours later the excitement is gone because I can’t get it running on my TV.
I use Chromecast to watch stuff on my TV. I have an older Android smartphone and an older MacBook with Mojave. Both devices don’t support the app. Streaming in browser on my Mac works but it doesn’t have a proper Chromecast function, I can only mirror the tab and the quality is horrendous.
I’m not an Apple fan and this cemented my disdain for this company. All they care about is selling their overpriced devices. What’s the point of having a streaming service when you’re not willing to make it universally available?!
Rant over.
The service I had so much really good content that I was decided to pay for it after just two weeks into the 3months free trial.
I have yet to watch a series or movie that is below average. I just watched Greyhound and it’s a very good movie. I have watch two tv shows and I am now into my 3rd and 4th (“See” and Servant) and they are very good (See) and good (Servant). I am interested in Foundation, Silo and Invasion. Not to mention Killers of the Flower Moon that I am waiting by the minute.
They don’t have as much content as older services as HBO or even Netflix but right now I can tell they are curating their content magnificently.
I am now about to watch Joel Coen’s The Tragedy of Macbeth with Denzel and Frances McDormand. It is going to be hard to not keep the subscription.
Get a streamer. The Apple TV is great but I also love the Fire Cube and it is best suited for those “not fans” of Apple.
