Roku free channel
I have not had time to check this out, always leery of the 'free' channels. Has anyone gone to get the channel, if so, what kind of things do they offer. I do not watch any new movies or tv shows, so wonder just what they have to make it worth while to have.

Boy finding Hallmark movies would be great, I only do antenna tv, Amazon Prime or Roku. I am not a computer savvy person, so do you watch them on the computer or tv.
Am having hip surgery in January or February and would like to be prepared to watch some movies.

We bought a Roku unit for $30. For a while just watched their programs. Not regular programming like the three big junk channels but specials like on Nova, history channel, A$E, Nat Geo and more. Joined Net Flix for $9 a month (we get it on our TV through the Roku) and have even more great specials and good old movies to choose from. Only have Wi-fi and internet from the cable company. Have to have Wi-Fi to use Roku. It cut our cable bill in half and we have all of the great entertainment we want!

'What the Deaf Man Heard', looked it up and that does sound like a nice movie to see.
Maybe I will get NetFlix for the winter.

Netflix pricing:
https://www.digitaltrends.com/movies...lan-breakdown/
I couldn't get into Netflix subscription rates on their site because I already subscribe to the service. We pay 12 dollars a month. Which we can watch on four different screens (such as a smart tv, a pc or laptop and a tablet or phone).
We bought a Ruko box and just love it. Only paid sub we have is Netflix, Amazon Prime members can view lots of "free tv shows and movies". Plutotv is free to watch with a Ruko box.

I went to the link provided by Chasing Hawk and signed up but do not see anything happening. They should need my credit information but can not see anything as yet or an email from them.
BUT, I used to have Netflix so maybe I am in their system still, is that possible.
Am so tired of not being able to see something decent and that I really want to watch.
It is only me here, so I would only do one tv for $8 per month or should I bump it up to the $10 for HD programs.
