[QUOTE="TheBatfink, post: 1230030, member: 52265"] Sadly I am passing on MP more and more recently. I feel its not keeping up with the times. Even MP2 is much of the same old I find, for me it offers nothing new at all. These days you can pick up a Fire Stick for next to nothing, get access to all the major streaming services and what has been the bullet for MP for me personally - Plex. Especially now it’s doing LiveTV DVR. Also not having multi-platform support is a big deal. With Plex I can watch my TV Shows, Movies on practically anything with a screen or can plug into a TV, the convenience is unrivaled. I know there are options for MP but the apps are amateur at best and I feel always in real danger of not being supported longer term (and many aren’t). I see same as guy on previous page, a decent skin comes out once in a while.. supported a couple of months, then dies. For me the lure of one device, is too great. I’ll keep MP around, it served me well for many many a year. Time will tell I guess. 10+ years ago what was relevant isn’t so much now. No one really had tablets, smart phones, consoles and streaming devices.. but they do now and they are only going from strength to strength. [/QUOTE]
