Does anyone have any idea how I can legally watch new TV shows on my PB? I dont care if I have to pay. I have a Hulu Plus account, but that aint working. I downloaded some shows from iTunes and copied them over, but that aint working. Why do they make it so hard for people to do things the right way? I'd rather not hit up a torrent site, it's too much work and I'm lazy.

Help.

Movies & shows from itunes has DRM, so the Playbook cant play em.

I'm going on a long business trip and spending lots of time on planes. Thanks for the suggesting about watching on my TV, but I have a 100" projector setup, so it's not as portable as the PB. I also have an iPad2, but I was really hoping to use just my PB and leave my iPad at home. Sadly, it doesn't look like that's going to happen.

Also, regarding the DRM from iTunes. I downloaded a music video (which I paid for) and it's a M4V file. It plays just fine on the PlayBook. But TV shows that I paid for with the same M4V extension do not. It's very strange.

People on this forum have mentioned DRM removal tools for iTunes shows (should be able to find here by search or on Google). If you bought them, and you are just using for your own personal use, then there's no moral issue with removing the DRM.

RIM also said a video store is in the works, and they are negotiating with Hulu for Hulu Plus. Amazon videos are also an option.

can i download movies purchased on Amazon to my PB?

Pre downloaded shows would be a lot more convenient than streaming since these are still all Wifi only models we are talking about.

I have been using the app 'OnlineTV'. You can find it in PB Appworld under the category Photo&Video/Video and TV

Not showing up in my AppWorld.

[curve1967]

Here is a screenshot for reference. First app listed is the one I mean

[stubbornswiss]

Hmm....very strange.

We seem to have different apps in AppWorld.

Is this normal? I am in TX, where are you?

[kbill1984]

I'm not seeing it either.

[curve1967]

I am in Ontario, Canada and using the current OS 1.0.1.1710. Very strange I checked the web version of AppWorld and it doesn't show there either.

RIM's app world is so goofy. i'm with t-mobile US and BB bridge hasn't even showed up on my 9700's app world yet. had to download it OTA.

Itunes works for me. Just have to convert the file and sometimes remove drm. I use Daniusoft Drm removal tools

[stubbornswiss]

Yup...... weird stuff going on for sure!

I really don't understand how different users/locations get different apps in the same AppWorld.

I guess its not the same AppWorld......

I'm near D.C. and mine looks different than both of yours.

Comedy Central comes in nice and clear through the browser.

Hmm......so is it reasonable to assume that ones location determines what is available through AppWorld?

We are not connecting through a carrier (I hope I'm correct), so the content cannot be controlled by a carrier. Right?

[DjDante]

you can go to each network site and watch it that way

i'm in Ontario CA as well,and I don't see it either... I have the same apps as TX, but in slightly different order. Strange indeed...

This is a bit weird. Side note, the Playbook commercial has played at least 3 times in the last hour watching Myth Busters.
