No issues with HBO Max on Nvidia Shield or on Android tablet... Knock on wood. Had some minor issues/glitching with the Harry Potter movies when it first launched. But that's it.

It won't be cheaper...you still need to pay for both. You'll see your E+ content in Hulu.

Those last four episodes as a movie would be my #1. So good.

I think you'll have to have your sister upgrade to the bundle and then venmo her the cash. You or she have to log into your Hulu account with the email address that started the account. Bundle Q&A

Unlimited DVR is standard on YouTube TV. It's cloud based so you can watch your DVR shows on any device. It's the best feature of the service IMHO... That and the live sports.

If they did, the reporters would mysterioulsy not get invited to press conferences or have their gameday credentials misplaced. Bellmont flexes...or at least used to.

If this ever comes to pass (you know, because all the ideas in this thread are totally plausible), DO NOT EAT THE CHILI!!! It's ain't chili! It fucking spaghetti with various shit on top of it!!!! That was a HUGE culture shock when I visited campus right after leaving UT. And those guys were so excited to take me to the famous "chili" place because I was from Texas...and we love chili. They were as clueless as I was.

Ha! I have 6 kids at home, wife and me working from home, four teenagers with phones, and two other kids streaming all the time, three with school from home zoom classes most of the day. We are 100% streaming, 3 TVs, and an XBox. We go over the cap every month, but it's always close. Our max was 1461 month...last month...and I told the fam to go for broke and put all devices on the wifi to get to a baseline to see if we needed unlimited or could manage staying under. New Google Nest router lets me see the culprits and if everyone gets cell phones off wifi, and one kid settles down with Nintendo Switch streaming, we are under. All that is to say...wtf are you doing man?!? Ha. As mentioned above, the NVIDIA Sheild streaming TV in the main room is the biggest stream suck...489 GB. Second place was Google Chromecast (new one) on second TV at 142 GB. Nintendo Switch (used to stream YouTube) 126 GB. XBox 84 GB...several games downloaded for Chirstmas, XBox normal usage is very little data. Everything else way less that have that. It's all about the streaming video. Comcast is smart...as folks figure that out, the price difference between unlimited and one of their triple play crap plans smaller. Also, it would be great if the apps or the devices would allow for data management. The closest I've found is YouTube letting you drop the resolution for each video...but you have to change every time. I'd love to be able to tell the whole network of streamers to stay at 720. Kids wouldn't even notice.

How are you getting XFinity uncapped? I thought their recent announcement rolled out 1.2 GB cap across the country? $30 extra bucks plus you have to use their modem to get unlimited. You getting 200 for $50 plus $30?! I just reupped with Comcast/Xfinity. There are the only option here. $80.95 for 200 Mbps capped at 1.2 TB. $10 for every 50 GB over. I was on $100 for 100 GB and phone line. They no longer offer phone/Internet bundles. I finally convinced the wife to let me kill the "hard line." This is a promo rate for two years. It's $80.95 for 100 after 2 years, or $95.95 for 200 after 2 years (the prices wont stay the same that far out).

What Podcasts Are You Listening to?
Smartless is funny. Will Arnett and Jason Bateman giving each other shit with guests. Neil deGrasse Tyson was a guest. The host were throwing out zingers and subtle jokes while Neil did his science thing. And it always took Neil an awkward 15 seconds to get the joke and belatedly laugh.

247Sports: Ranking college football's richest, poorest programs (2018 data). https://247sports.com/LongFormArticle/College-football-richest-poorest-programs-Alabama-Crimson-Tide-Texas-Longhorns-Ohio-State-Buckeyes-157982941/ Power Five NCAA conferences generated more than $2.9 billion in combined revenue for the 2019 fiscal year. The Big Ten Conference reported more than $780 million in revenue, the most of any conference, with the SEC second at just shy of $721 million. The Pac-12 was third on the list at $530.4 million, followed by the ACC ($455.4 million) and then the Big 12 ($439 million). The Pac-12's reported revenue does not take into account the equity value of the Pac-12 Networks, per the report.

Comcast is awful. Had to change my Internet plan, and dealing with their app/website/chatbot/humans was comical. Avoid if you can. Me: Why does this email say one thing and this other email say another. And why does the app says this other thing and the web page say something else all together? Them: Let me put you on hold and I'll find out. ...hold music... 1.5 hours later...System hangs up on me.

Houston boy on the East Coast. I watch WAY less of my Astros since they moved west from the central. We risk the same if we start playing more games out west. The best PAC properties are two times zones from Austin and three from the populated EST. Lots of arguments for a Texas versus USC game being put on TV earlier and we'd never be subject to that late game. But there's no guarantee of that. And just like we used to say there's no way in holy hell that our game would be moved away from Thanksgiving Day, we'd most certainly be subject on occasion to that crap ass 8 or 9 a.m. PST college football game that's being discussed. Better than the late late show I guess. Long-standing notion is that sports reporters won't stay up and watch the West Coast games. That's not going to change just because big 12 teams play a few more games out there. Every growing/future property in CFB is east of Austin notwithstanding unrelated issues with BYU and Boise. Everything else is just poaching existing brands.
