  • I stumbled on it by accident so I am not sure if it will be great, but it offered enough stuff that she wanted (I could care less about live tv!) That were going to give it a try. It’s called frndly tv and looks like it’s $10 a month or $8 if you pay for the year. It has a week trial so I guess we’ll see if it’s decent. The other one we saw was Philo but I think that was $25 and offered more channels but nothing more that we wanted that the first option didn’t have. Neither offer local channels which is why we’re also getting Peacock as well.


  • Yeah, bring the features… I think in the 4 years of being with Hulu they only had 1 redesign but still no new features and definitely never fixed any of the bugs that have been here forever. I really wanted to see some improvements to more 4k content and feature some of the live tv broadcasts in 4k but nope.

    I finally canceled the over priced live tv and today’s the last day before it’s gone. $85 bucks a month is just not worth it. Found another service that offers a lot of channels for $8 a month and my wife only wants 1 local station so $7 for that. Knocking $85 down to $15 is a big win. I don’t think I will be the only one if they really think they can raise prices like that. Glad I’m done with them.





  • Servers would probably be way easier than workstations if you ask me. If they were virtual, just bring up the remote console and you can do it all remotely. Even if they were physical I would hope they have an IP KVM attached to each server so they can also remotely access them as well. 450 sucks but at least they theoretically could have done every one of them without going anywhere.

    There are also options to do workstations as well, but almost nobody ever uses those services so those probably need to be touched one by one.






  • I currently use Navidrome as well, but I really don’t use smart playlists like that. For me, I use Symfonium on Android, which offers a ton of options and is incredible. In all my years of using a personal server to host music, this app has been the best by a lot. As for desktop apps, I don’t use them much, but when I do, I use Musicbee, which also offers unlimited customization if you’re willing to put time into it. It used to have a subsonic plug-in, but I have no idea if it’s still active. I just use the local file location and treat it as its own entity. If the subsonic plug-in still works, it may allow you to do what you want since everything seems possible in Musicbee from my experience.
