I don't think I'll ever sub to IPTV because of the community around it. I miss the days of setting up your own satellite dish and downloading the decryption keys.

Honestly if it weren't for sports and Jeopardy I wouldn't bother. I wish more leagues went the way if F1 with their decent price and amazing app.

If you don't need to watch Jeopardy live it is pretty readily available via torrents. Probably in better quality and without ads.

Sports are much harder to find. There are trackers but they are much harder to get into and I can't attest to the completeness (I'm not really into sports) and watching it live is probably more relevant.

Why not an aerial for Jeopardy? It's usually on local broadcast, so you could plumb together a DVR setup if you want it within a unified experience.

Not really... Tons of sites live stream sports.

Isn't IPTV shit for sports or really anything popular? I've read there's a tonne of buffering and quality problems... I dont watch sports but I have family and friends looking for a solution and ask me because they're on my Plex server.

Personally the *arr stack is perfect for what I do. When I want to watch something I'll scroll through the recently added and pick something.

If not for IPTV, how else do people pirate sports?

I've had luck in the past and am having luck recently with a decent provider (buffering-wise, EPG is shit).

I think buffering comes with the cheapest firesticks and the cheapest providers.
