Episode 4 - February Sweeps

After technical difficulties with the first attempt of this episode, Chris and
Jeff talk about all things streaming media! The long-awaited AppleTV 4 has
finally arrived, and Jeff breaks down why you can’t watch your favorite sports
team without jumping through hoops.

AppleTV 4

Chris used to have a crappy Linksys router, but ended up purchasing the Apple
AirPort Extreme router. 802.11ac has
multi-station WLAN throughput of at least 1 gigabit per second and a single link
throughput of at least 500 megabits per second.

The AppleTV doesn’t have gigabit ethernet

Best new app for the Apple TV? Plex

The AppleTV remote is pretty great.

A walk down TiVo
memory lane.

Jeff prefers to watch The Daily Show on his MythTV
setup because he can skip the commercials… until they added copy protection!

Copy Control bits
encrypt the channel streams, and don’t let you record without the decryption
key.

John Oliver may have
stolen our hearts. And he posts the long videos on
youtube for free!

Us”

HBO uses MLB’s streaming
infrastructure

Andy Samberg and
the HBO
CEO
love giving out HBO GO passwords!

To binge, or
not to binge? That is the question.
