Also it depends on what iptv service u have. Because I have a service that dnt care how many connections you have. Jus have a good internet connection so it won’t buffer soo much. Wen they dnt have no cap you can buy 1 connection and watch multiple screens at 1 time like do. Because I’m a sports head so I watch multiple sports at 1 time

This is from the “Best IPTV-Wholesale $2/mo & Alternative” topic, a comment by @IndigoJon back on Oct. 4…. so maybe things have changed….
I have been using Strong from Amber and it works well in both TiviMate and Sparkle, except I don’t seem to be able to record to Shield external storage with the 1 connection she offers. She said Strong is only available with 1 connection, so has anyone had good experience with a similar provider who offers 2 connections?
Private IPTV Access is my main service and is USD 10.00/month for two connections. If you pay with bitcoin, its $8.50. The channel selection is ala carte. You choose only the channels you want, or all the channels in a category.

Hi Steve, ive been using pia as well and love the ala carte setup. Never had a single buffer using it either although I do route it through a server. But service response is very fast, I would think its automated….all in all best so far ive dealt with.

Did you use their method to pay with bitcoin?
nope I used a card
I pay with Bitcoin using Coinbase. Also, I always purchase two months at a time. Coinbase requires a minimum amount for transfer. Never had any problem.
I have the 8k also and she has asked me to let her know if I would like to purchase more connections.

My understanding is per app - as others have stated one connection and can view multi-screen with Tivimate.
Not tested using 2 apps on one device to connect to a one connection service but I know you can’t use 2 devices at the same time to connect to same service - you are free to set up on as many devices you want but only one can connect at any time.
Multiple connection service or multiple services
PIA offers 8 connections for $40 per month = $5 per connection or $60 per year - Amberbaby service options the most expensive costs $35 per year
I would go for multiple services - if one goes down you have a backup.

I might have to look into PIA after the first of the year, i’m set for now with 2 services but it never hurts to know where to head to next….

Any reason in particular that makes PIA look attractive? There are so many choices, just curious why you like this one,

@GraceWilson ….it is one of the few i have seen that actually has a channel listing that you can view, and there are a ton of channels, including lots of 24/7’s, if that’s your thing, and if i understand it right, YOU pick the channels YOU want, not sure if that’s the same as saying ‘just give me USA/CA/UK or not, or how actually picky you can be, but sounds interesting enough to try for a month….

It is true ala carte….Countrys are all grouped. catagorys such as sports are grouped etc….it really is the only one ive seen like this where you can for instance pick 2 Canada channels and say 5 UK channels and 10 sports channels any or all and it gives you an m3u and epg file…

Hey @TXRon , thanx for the reply, that’s Xactly what i was wondering….1 from column A, 17 from column B etc. etc. etc…. And how does that work….you do the picking yourself as part of the sign up and payment process, or talk/text/email someone?? either way I gotta admit that is pretty dang cool, and nothing i’ve heard of before !!
