Plex just changed the game when it comes to watching television. Now Plex users can join the cord cutting revolution! With a Plex Pass, you can now watch and record your favorite free HDTV digital broadcast channels, including local news and sports, on any device, anywhere in the world. That’s right—you don’t need to pay for cable to watch the newest episode of The Bachelorette or your home team’s sportsball match.

With Plex Live TV and DVR you can watch and record high-definition, over-the-air television broadcasts using a digital tuner and antenna. The company’s intuitive and customizable program guide supports channels in more than 70 countries, including shows from all major American networks like ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX and CW, as well as local programming, news and sports. They also support many other major networks around the world, like CBC, BBC, ITV, Telemundo and Univision.

Plex Live TV is currently available on Android TV and iOS devices, but recorded TV shows and movies can be watched, wherever you go, on more mobile and home streaming devices than any other DVR solution, including iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux, Roku, Chromecast, Amazon Fire, NVIDIA SHIELD and other Android TV devices, Apple TV, Xbox, PlayStation, and most Smart TVs.
