• Pretty Useless

  BlamanceFebruary 4, 2012

  Pros

  Nice Icon, not much else

  Cons

  It basically looks up programming that requires you to watch tons of advertisements. Just like Hulu which is where many of the tv shows come from.

  Summary

  The majority of channels say "no videos found". The video tab just reveals a bunch of old cartoons. Not sure what is going on here. I don't find this app on MacUpdate. I find no forums that are dedicated to the uses of this app. The support page is pretty useless...It is pretty much money down the drain.

• Will not launch

  Pros

  None: Will not launch

  Cons

  Will not launch

  Summary

  I get a NillObjectException error even though I am an administrator on my computer. I'm running Lion, and maybe that's the problem, but Lion has been available to developers long enough for this not to be a problem. I wish the program worked as I think it's what I need.

• Not worthy of a Mac moniker

  twmissmtJanuary 25, 2011

  Pros

  Interface is okay

  Cons

  slow, buggy, limited content

  Summary

  As an ardent Mac user I find this software offensive in to be categorized a Mac product. It is slow, glitchy, buggy and ineffectual. When it does work I've been unsuccessful finding the content I want more times than not. This software is not deserving of the "Mac" moniker and an embarrassment to the Mac community.

• Nice application and fantastic support

  sing2me--2008January 7, 2011

  Pros

  Had a glitch trying to get the program to run on my MacPro, so I emailed for some help. I received a response within 5 minutes and followups even quicker. Wow! I was not expecting that. Highly recommended--easy to use and works as described.

  Cons

  None that I have experienced

  Summary

  I suggest you give the demo a try. Best way to describe the program is that it has a simple-to-use interface that finds the best of what's available on the internet. It's sort of like having all of your remotes consolidated into one. It just makes everything easier to view. You could do the same thing with internet searching, but this eliminates the time and steps required. Highly recommended.

• Very promising.

  kbooneJanuary 5, 2011

  Pros

  Works a lot like a Mac Application should

  Cons

  Shows could be a little more current but the selection is great

  Summary

  This is a great alliterative to cable and in time could surpass it. If it had DVR features it could kick Cable's tail today
