Though Cablevision expended the options for watching live TV on certain devices, I still see their app as limited. I often hear that many who use the Optimum apps wish that they could stream outside of their home. Personally, I like to use Dish Online since it lets me watch live TV or recorded shows whenever I want on my laptop. I like that it works outside of my house too, so I can be at the library or the coffee shop. Just the other day, a few co-workers at Dish and I were watch the most recent Saturday Night Live episode. There is no question that being able to watch TV online is exciting, and I hope that Cablevision loosens up soon!
