How to legally watch TV shows and
movies on the move
You, the consumer, should be the king of
content. It should be available to you at your convenience, in a format of your
choosing, and on a device of your choosing. That movement and tilt to customer
satisfaction is slowly underway and the evolution is only natural because it's
not always possible to take time out to watch a movie in a theatre or sit down
at a pre-defined time for a TV show. Sure, a DVR set top box is a solution, but
it also restricts you to your room. Thankfully, there are a number of free apps
available today using which you can access your favourite content on your
phone, tablet or computer -as long as you have stable Internet.
1 BoxTV
BoxTV lets you view TV shows and movies in 11
languages -it works on web browsers as well as iOS, Android and Windows phone
devices.A free account sign-up is required after which you can access movies
and shows listed in the free section without paying anything. They also have
multiple subscription packages for content starting as low as `49month. The
content catalogue is regularly updated with new titles and shows. A `For You'
section recommends movies and TV shows based on previously watched content.
2 HotStar
This is a relatively new app by Star India. It's
completely free to use and you can use it to stream movies, TV shows as well as
sports events to your phonetablet. Some features require a free account
sign-up, but you can start using it instantly. They offer content in seven
languages with the option to create a playlist of your choice. It is available
on Android, iOS and Nokia Asha. There is also an option to download the content
to your device for offline viewing.
3 Everywhere TV
If you are a Tata Sky subscriber, then you can
use their free Everywhere TV app to access more than 65 channels on the move.
You can even view programmes aired in the past 5 days, as well as access their
video-ondemand service. While the app is available free for Android, iOS, PC and
MAC, you have to pay a monthly subscription of `60 per month to use this
service. Keep in mind that you can only use a maximum of two devices to access
Everywhere TV with each Tata Sky subscriber ID.
On your computer
Don't get lost in torrents and illegal downloads
-there are services where you can legally stream video content using your web
browser. Check out YouTube BoxOffice (http:www.youtube.com boxoffice) where you
can stream fulllength movies, free of cost. They offer movies across multiple
languages and in various resolutions -you can subscribe to a movie channel in a
par ticu lar language or just search for a movie. For TV shows, most TV
channels now stream their shows on their own websites. Just head to the
official website and go to the videos section -many offer free viewing (full
episodes of previously aired TV shows) and that too in HD quality.
