I am 46 and work in an IT field. I dread every time I have to go outside of Fios. App location, username/password, buffering, ensuring to smarten my non-smart tv, etc. I resign myself to troubleshooting duty. It is not a bandwidth issue - I had 7 kids simultaneously doing remote schooling during COVID.
For NFL, I skipped most Amazon games even though I have Prime. Worked without issue a couple times. Twice I found out through Twitter it was an Amazon issue. Another time I never figured out the root cause.
This past NCAA Tournament I had one tv on Fios and one using AppleTV. Worked fine for several hours and was a disaster after that. AppleTV issue? March Madness app issue? Bandwidth? Who knows…frustrating.
I get those who stream 100% of the time likely do not have many of my issues. But we like Fios and want to stay with it.
Bottom line: I am not getting a Netflix account and will skip those NFL games.

have two choices - News and sports. It's only a matter of time.
