Thanks. I could spend hours watching distant cultures. Their colours, environment, technical equipment... I saw some people in Somalia using DJI microphones, those that in the West are mainly used by YouTubers.

I also see TVs that are normally subject to fees. I'm aware the FAQs say it's only public streams, but I fear this won't last long.

The definition of "public" in this context is not straightforward. I, too, doubt the site is long for this world, and due to its ease-of-use could possibly also draw the broadcasters' attention to all the unprotected streams they may have either not known about, or not cared about because they were only really discoverable/usable by a relatively small group of geeks

Non-public streams wouldn’t be published without DRM, or at least not as publicly retrievable (i.e. without any authentication) M3U playlists, would they?

Yes - for some of these you can stream if you know the URL, but you're only able to discover the URL after making an account.

I think its inevitable death will be from all that unrestricted pornography. That being said, these kinds of projects usually hold up for quite some time.

Where are the pornographic channels? You know, so I can avoid them?

My children were interested in playing with it, but this was my fear. Is there actually pornography streaming on it?
