I pay 20 a month for Crave with HBO, and I still pirate Last of Us so I can get 5.1

gotta love the shitty sound on Crave esp when hard of hearing and really need those channels to not be muddled down to "STEREO"

my buddy whom i share with asked me today 'is this show only supposed to be in 720P because it sucked'.. apparently after that he tried a pirate stream and it was in glorious 4K.

I didn't notice because my TV is 14 years old and kinda modest.

I’m using Crave on Apple TV and not seeing an issue. Why is it hated so much?

Crave is only good on Apple TV and that’s because Apple is pretty much doing the heavy lifting and providing most of the UI elements used in the app.

It’s also to my knowledge one of the only platforms where Crave actually delivers a 4k image.

That makes sense. It’s surprising to me how Paramount+ still manages to have absurdly terrible UI on Apple TV though

watch any scene in a HD show where the camera is panning. Look for a stutter every second or so. It's shit. It can't maintain its framerate.

Paramount+ blows Crave out of the water. I only used Crave when I got it for free with my cable package, even then, pirating shows was way better.

QUESTION: Are the new star trek shows on P+ because i hate crave so much due to piss poor stream qualities (sub-HD)
