Freely TV

isnt it just a freeview rebrand but updated format ??[information courtesy off lucid]
"It is the platform operator of Freeview and its satellite twin Freesat, and is owned by the country’s leading public service broadcasters."

 
The blurb I read said that it was going to be more internet- rather than transmission-based.
 
I'm vaguely keeping an eye.

Likely the same bunch of useless Commitee specifiers that messed up You View and took forever and a year to launch.

Don't hold your breath for it.

I read, somewhere, that Hisense were to be one of the first to market with it...

Intended to be iPTV with live and catchup streams, for if/when traditional broadcast ends?
 
When they say free - I am assuming they are still streaming live TV, so you need a TV Licence.
 
not worth it for beeb and iplayer. I would have stayed a loyal customer had they not sent me so many rude and threatening letters when I first moved in (and had no tv).
 
Only the BBC though.
it allows me to record all freeview channels and filter out the adverts-- if free view goes i am knackered as i dont do subscription adverts--pay for or finger selecting content just select record program--series and forget o_O
 
I wouldn't go that far.

But I do think they need to cut the apron strings and start charging people who want it and blocking people who don't.

i suspect thats exactly what freeview are doing with the online service but i dont know what requirement will continue in the "public services " roll??

Just seen a Freely advert on TV.

Looks like things are moving.

They have an arrangement with Hisense who make Freely enabled sets.


They are called Everyone TV.

Backed by BBC, ITV, C4 and C5.

Don't seem connected to Freeview.

But I'm not ready to embrace it and certainly don't want to invest in a Hisense TV.
