In Japan they have to jump through these hoops.. We should adopt some of what they have.. They used to do hunter safety course in high school or after school and the kids had to go through that course..
Row two on my Roku has three really... interesting channels (apps) contrasting my taste and showing what you can see on the entirety of the roku.. First channel four or the forth placed channel is X-TV a channel that has so much to offer and it is currently free.. It is a private channel which simply means it isn't in the channel store and you have to click on the link you have saved wherever you have it saved (you have it saved, trust me) to look up the private channels selection which will have about a smaller percentage than the channel store has..And some are worth at least trying and others are.. crap but you never know...X-TV I tried back in July after finding it, tried it for a day, saw a shitload potential and moved it from the lower end of my list (around 100) to the 4th situation because of what I saw as great potential including at the time NBCSN which can only be gotten with the digital cable or second or third tier on satellite.. And when the Olympics were on this channel was on for like all of three nights (days as well) but was soon shut down.. But this channel also has the networks from the east feeds, reminded me of the days when dish had the east and west coast feeds and you combine those and the local channels and you could see what you wanted without a vcr or dvr... The full number of channels I haven't counted up but there are a lot of them.. Some only work in Canada (the global channels which is sad but oh well) and Australia.. But there are a lot that work here in America.. How long this channel will work is anyone's guess.. my guess is if it is still working by Christmas I will be stunned.. (as it is free)..
The next channel in the row is OSI74.. This was ZOM-BEE channel but that went toes up about a year ago and then the one of the guys who had programming there started this channel.. Outer Space International 74... Which has quite a selection of odd things to watch.. Cinema Insomnia being the top show but there are quite a few others.. The Ministry of Slack... Pantry Manor.. As well as the great 12:01 beyond.. A three plus hour extravaganza.. I think of that as being actually watched very late at night after a night of bar hopping and going home and turning this on and just watching some of the odd shit from this show as well as the channel itself.. Fun for the whole brainless plastered..
Betamax tv takes position six.. It's a VOD site but also can be a continuous streaming site if you choose that option.. Why is Betamax tv where it is.. Back in the day I actually owned a beta player.. The tapes were slightly shorter, 4.5 hours max and they seemed to have better quality.. Mine was a very basic vcr it could be programmed for a single program.. So I would likely program it to record Letterman...
The next row is the weather row.. Three weather channel/apps starting with the Weather Network.. This channel has a fifteen minute loop, three and a half minutes weather update at the top of the hour then repeated, same with the long ranger for long term weather guessing (forecasting) Then time lapse and another segment that involves video segment as well as a return from break videos of weather from around the globe of weather aftermath.. Really interesting with no commercials.. They have local weather breaks but since what we have is the direct feed, there are no commercials nor local weather updates..
Weather Nation and it's local weather regions.. They have the radar and ten day forecast..
'
Weather Underground is like the version on the computer.. No live personality, just the radar and the forecast of the next four days.. This is where I go for the weather for a quick look.. Are any of these 100% accurate??? Are they ever???

P.S. I want to clarify on the X-TV channel.. It isn't great and we have better speed on our internet an a strong 5Mbps and still there is issues with the sub channels within this channel... Depending I suppose on how many people are on that particular channel.. When the channel first came out, or rather when I first found it the logo seemed to be the X in the Plex logo and I think that is where it comes from is the plex server somehow.. I always wished that plex could operate that way.. And now it is there.. How long will this channel work?? Again I have no idea.. Hopefully through football season this year.. But again the signal gets interrupted regularly.. Might be the router might be.. Just the channel.. It is beta and private as well...
