... that could change at any time. As I understand it, their agreement runs out today. I just got an email from YTTV giving instructions on how to access its service by using your phone or laptop if Roku removes it, then cast to your tv. I've been trying to do that for a couple of days but haven't been able to get it work. I was able to in my previous place but can't here for some reason.

It's just aggravating that one giant company and one somewhat smaller company can't get together and we keep having to go through this crap every so often when a fight between the media giants breaks out. Big profits are never enough and the consumer gets shafted as usual.
