Vanity: RoKu users, a new 'channel' has appeared titled "PLUTO" which features a number of substation channels containing news, old movies, children's cartoons (Betty Boop; a short lived tv series, The Invisible Man; classic drive in movie channel. Competition on the air waves
“I never have much luck with any of those streaming services that embed commercial breaks. Crackle, Hulu, etc.
They will play about 1/2 of the program and then bog down after a commercial break and will not reload the content. When I exit out (have to reboot ROKU, sometimes) and try to move to the last location in the program, I get a dozen commercials. The hassle isn’t worth the frustration for ‘free with commercials’ channels. Netflix, Amazon Prime, and HBO GO do not seem to have that kind of problem.”
Agree 100%. I tried Crackle one time, and basically it’s impossible to get it to play anything to completion. Crackle is essentially a scam and I don’t understand how they even stay in business since I don’t see why anyone would attempt to use their “service” after trying it the first time.
I watch Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Acorn TV (British)
That accounts for 99% of my TV time. The exception is a rare sports event, major news item. For daily news, I read online and listen to both AM radio and XM Sirius which includes Fox News, etc.

Crackle is owned by Sony.
MST3K channel on Pluto!!
I believe it’s also available on Chromecast.
Agree with everything you wrote. I have one hooked up to my non-smart HDTV in the bedroom.
I wasn't going to bother until I saw your post, thanks! I found it for Amazon Fire TV, so I got the app. Hercules Unchained is on now. "I'm so sleepy I can barely keep awake!" heheh
