IPTV Services
 
Looking into IPTV for sport (i.e. Football).

Anyone have a service that they would say is solid / stable ?
I use a service I get free atm, but its not particularly reliable.

I watch UK Premiership & League One, plus some American Football.

Why would it not be possible ?

I'm simply interested in the names of reliable providers.

Using IPTV is not illegal as such, any more than using VPNs.

SnoopZ might be of use to you considering your requirements.

Difference between paid-for and free. Free tends to be on the dodgy side.

I use 2 services called Strong8K and Trex(so I always have a backup), I would recommend buying them for a 3 month or 1 month if it's available to see if it's suitable for you, 3 months costs £6 for Strong and Trex each, make sure you don't use the renewal link, these services will give you 58K TV channels from most countries, VOD for TV Shows and Movies.

Go here, payment is easy. https://www.u7buy.com/seller/1964899524203065346

I have used the seller Pro-IPTV without issue so far, put in Strong and Trex in the search box or it may default to a different seller.

You then need a suitible IPTV player, I use Tivimate but thats Android only, I'm sure someone can recommend something for PC.

You will be provided with a username and password as well as a DNS URL.

Still illegal content. Any payments are for the service, not the content. The content providers don't see a penny of it.

Of course it is but obviously we don't care.

I think it's free on Android sticks too I just had issues with it locking up when I was using a Firestick, but it does work well on PC.

Here are the legal ways to get sports.

Sky and Virgin Media (in VM areas only) both provide streaming boxes and you can subscribe on monthly rolling contracts (which VM calls Flex).

If you have a streaming device such as a Fire TV or Roku stick, you can download the NOW and Max apps.

In all cases you have to subscribe to Sky Sports and/or TNT Sports as well.

anyone else feeling judged but do not really care? haha

I only actually legitimately subscribe for educational purposes. Snoop will back me up as we have had conversations on the subject. But I still feel no moral guilt over it
