Why I Am Dropping Frontier TV: Commercial Interruptions During Live Hockey Games

As a dedicated hockey fan, there's nothing quite like the adrenaline rush of watching a live game. The thrill of seeing your favorite team battle it out on the ice, the tension in close matches, and the pure excitement of a last-minute goal are experiences that are irreplaceable. Unfortunately, my time with Frontier TV has marred these moments, and I’ve reached my breaking point with interruptions on TNT and ESPN during the Stanley Cup Finals.

Why you can't watch Bally Sports on cable? How to watch sports on DirecTV Stream on iPhone, Android, AppleTV or Roku

The DirecTV Stream app is awesome because it lets you watch live TV on your phone, tablet, or computer. It's like having an antenna on your phone.

The app works by connecting to the internet so you can stream live television through your home Wi-Fi network or cellular data plan. This means that as long as there's an internet connection available (even if it's slow), then you should be able to watch whatever show you want at any time.

As someone who has spent too much time watching terrible commercials while waiting for a sports game to come back on after a commercial break, this sounds like heaven to me! No more missing half of my favorite shows just because I couldn't find parking in front of Best Buy during football season!

I'm not sure what kind of technical wizardry goes into making this work but I'm guessing it involves an algorithm that figures out which commercials are going to air during each show and then stops them from playing until after their respective breaks expire before resuming playback."

Cable TV operators like Comcast, Cox, Cablevision & Time Warner should be very scared of the newest trend and latest quarter of losing cable TV subscribers for the first time. It's not because of the recession as many cigar-smoking executives would want you to believe.  It's because these "fat cats" have not done anything to innovate in the last ten years and would rather send dividend checks to shareholders than improving your cable TV set-top box. Cable operators have been screwing their customers for years and the FCC has done nothing about it.  I believed for a few years that cable companies were going to win the wireless home race because of their connections into the home.  In my opinion, they have failed to execute a wireless phone marketing strategy against their competition AT&T U-Verse, Verizon Fios, Sprint & T-Mobile. 

According to an AP, article companies are losing customers in droves and recorded the first quarterly loss of 216,000 subscribers.  We expect this trend to continue for the coming years and cable companies are going to have to think of other tricks like 3D channels and sports TV programming to keep their subscribers happy.  Who knows free mobile TV could be in our near future.
