the USA does have at least two alternatives to having quality programming
the BBC & ITV created Britbox and it launched earlier this year. it is
Geo-locked to USA only.
the other is MHz networks. strictly foreign programs. do not know if
MHz is Geo-locked.
the one adult child who resides in a USA cesspool of a city, uses them.
According to this
http://www.theverge.com/2017/3/7/14845180/britbox-british-tv-bbc-itv-us-launch-streaming
the selection on Britbox is a bit limited.
MHznetworks seems to be mainly news channels, some of which are available
FTA on satellite in Europe. There is other content and it is seeking
content provider partners. It let me play the trailer, so it may not be
geo-locked, but it may not accept payments from outside the US.
It is encouraging that services like these are springing up. Thanks for the
links.
