1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS! -- Misrepresented, May 10, 2008

This review is from: DTV4PC [Old Version] (CD-ROM)

This product is misrepresented. You do not get access to local channels, but you get old broadcasts. For example, I bought this hoping to see some NHL playoffs, but the best chance of seeing any games was through CBC sports channels (2 of them). It has been showing the same game every time I check it (Toronto vs. Barrie minor leagues 3-0 in the first period) for the past week!!! The same is true for the other CBC sports channel. ESPN never connects successfully. The "Hockey TV" channel in USA is also showing the same game over and over, but it is a different game (Michigan vs some other team).

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS!

Other channels have the same issue. The best I saw was a news station that was always broadcasting 1 day behind.

1.0 out of 5 stars RIP-OFF, November 25, 2008

This review is from: DTV4PC [Old Version] (CD-ROM)

This product promises over a thousand channels, your lucky if you get a handful. You get many pop ups stating that you are not connected to the internet or the station is not broadcasting. I thought FOX broadcasts 24 hours a day!

I emailed customer service and I got a quick automated reply that I will be contacted within 2 days. It is now 2 week's and have not heard back from them. I emailed them again a couple of days agao and they just ignore me.

This product is horrible and so is their customer service. I can't beleive they are in business. Don't waste your money. You will regret it.

I've gotten this software to work only twice. My hardware and firewall meet the requirements for this product and seem to be set properly. It will not update either. I've tried contacting customer service, however they remain unavailable... Waste of time and money.
