That’s the one big drawback. You have to be in & watch every minute live. I like recording matches & then fast forward if the team I want to win are losing by lots. Or if it’s just a boring match etc.
There's a fair few that allow you to record.
You can record IPTV using the tivimate app . But isn't recording becoming pretty much obsolete these days ? You can just use catch up with most decent IPTV providers..
Me too, can get all the footy, boxing etc and all the movies and films, in some cases before they hit the UK, all for £28 a year.
Recommend Asgard for sports, shadow for tv and movies.
TV fraud gang jailed for illegally streaming Premier League games
By Tom Symonds and Tom Grundy
BBC News
Five men who illegally streamed Premier League football matches to tens of thousands of people have been jailed.
The gang sold cut-price £10-a-month subscriptions, bragging they made money showing games not otherwise available to watch live in the UK because of "blackout" broadcasting rules.
Their operation, described as the biggest so far, received more than £7m from 50,000 subscribers.

I am always unsure whether it is of any interest at all when I write about the "conditions in Germany".
To be able to receive all the games in Germany (Liga, 2. Liga, 3. Liga, ECL, EL, CL) you need five additional cost-incurring channels.
Since my money is not bursting at the seams, I pay monthly "only" for "Sky" and "DAZN" and the public channels "ARD" and "ZDF"!
The German Football League recently failed to set up its own marketing company, which wanted to bring on board an investor who was to bring in 2,000,000,000 euros and receive 12.5% shares in the marketing company for at least 20 years.
In the first instance, the second-division clubs and - fortunately - some first-division clubs voted against (20 in favour, 11 against, 5 abstentions).
Eintracht Frankfurt's board spokesman Hellmann, who always emphasises that he comes from the corner, was a supporter of the plan. Watzke from Borussia Dortmund spoke at the press conference that (seriously, you can't make this stuff up) Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund were the clubs that showed the most solidarity and wanted to bring many of their rights into this new society. Now (!) no one should come at him with "solidarity"!
Notice what?
Democracy is great! But only if it benefits me?
These profiteers wanted - and they will continue to try - to make the Bundesliga more attractive abroad.
My opinion on this: I can't imagine that anyone in China or Japan or Europe cares whether VfL Bochum draws or wins against Eintracht Frankfurt or not!
I want a Bundesliga that is competitive as a Bundesliga and not a perennial winner FC Bayern Munich.
The available money should be distributed more fairly than before and football should be given back to us. I would like to have it back on the radio from 3pm and on public television after the games from 6pm without additional fees.
Shit investors - get out of football!

Gotta love the priorities of British law enforcement.
Someone gets 11 years for making money off football streams, where someone done for sexual assault could potentially get 5.

One of his gang members was actually caught with child porn but received a much smaller sentence than the ring leader.
Shows you how judges care more about, multi-billion dollar media conglomerates rather than abused children.
I hear you, but there are also 62k people a fortnight who pay a lot more to go to White Hart Lane and see it in the flesh...Wait, there are 50k people who paid £10 pm for an illegal stream they can get for nothing?!!
It's a funny old game.

EDIT: oops! sorry, BBC story already posted above.
A bunch of lairy dudes who were flogging cheapo PL coverage had their collars felt by Plod and are now in chokey. I have seen it suggested on other forums that IP isn't real and that IP rights are never enforced (whether by criminal or civil process) . That is a mistaken view.

As we all know, the telly rights to the most popular sport in the UK are held by big-money operators. Unless you pay a fairly hefty sub, or go to the local sports boozer, you can't watch Premier League footy on telly as the matches happen. But that's Capitalism, and there it is.

I reckon it was this lot
Sentencing guidelines are set by politicians. The law has always been big on the protection of property. Me, I blame that John Locke, me.
That must explain why the prisons are so full and the criminal courts are so busy.
