On the contrary OB my having 4 streaming services demolishes your attempts to present my television preferences as outdated. I'm not talking about me - I'm talking about the television market as a whole.

I think it's easier rather than conflate your comments and throw in minority interest platforms that have 4 users like Pluto TV to answer questions as I present them with reference to popularly used products in the marketplace.

If someone was casting BT Sport 1 from the iOS app to a Chromecast would you describe them as watching linear television? Would they be streaming? Would they be both?
What is your point? Does it relate in any way to what I have said, and if so, how?

Stop being obtuse and say what you mean. Any genuine questions I will answer. But stop beating around the bush.

I’m done with trying to make sense of your outbursts. You need to explain yourself cogently, so we can all understand the points you are making.
