The trial period went fairly well. But now that I have had it for several months, all I can say is that the buffering and freezing problems are terrible to the point that it is unwatchable unless there is another channel you are willing to watch. And, there is a 50% chance that it will also be having problems. When Fox News is down or having problems, Fox Business is generally also down or having problems. At any particular time, my estimate is that 15% of the channels will be experiencing buffering and freezing problems and this problem is not isolated to a few channels, it seems to affect all of them. Or at least the ones I would like to watch. When I called to complain, I was told that they are aware of the problems and are working on them. As you can see from other reviews, they are not making much, if any, progress. When it works, there is a great channel selection and it is cheep. But that is about all I can say that is favorable. If you get this service, expect to see a lot of no video on the screen. I gave it two stars b The trial period went fairly well.

Tip for consumers:
Have an alternate plan before you cut the cord.
