i use emule to download old public access tv programmes
i run Plex on the PC so i can watch them on my tablet, phone, laptop, tv (via ps3) or on mrsegg's smart TV.
it will even stream audiobooks via mobile data so i can listen in the car or shed on my phone.
i've also used it to home all my photos, so can show portfolios of work to prospective clients.
all nicely segregated so i dont have to scroll through hundreds on the phone.
I'll PM, £50 per year and all the TV channels, movies and box sets you could ever need. I use a Amazon firestick with the TV to log on through the IPTV smarters app and go directly through the App on my ipad.
