We have noticed that our viewing experience is typically worse on the Amazon Fire TV than it is on the AppleTV. I probably have to reenter my password every 3rd or 4th time I use the app and channels just wont load fairly regularly. The most disappointing thing to me has been the lack of video on demand and tv anywhere sign ons.
I came from PS Vue and even with its limitations it is a far better service than DTVNow at the moment. I was happy to give DTVNow a shot for the free AppleTV, but we will not be renewing at the end of the 3 months.
Having tried all three of the services out right now, I still think we are probably a year away from having some really solid options. I will probably just sign up for a cheap 12 month Xfinity plan and see what the landscape looks like again in a year.
I think I am not going to renew after the 3 months and go back to PS Vue for now. The lack of DVR is a pretty big deal killer for us, and there aren't really any channels on the DTV lineup that I care about that I don't get on the Vue. The Vue even gives me more local channels here in Austin area (Fox and CBS), than DTV does (just Fox).
Still got an AppleTV out of the deal, which is pretty sweet. Curious to see what the Hulu offering ends up looking like.
