CUSA to go all-in on Twitter streaming

[Christopher Walker]

It would appear the experiments last year were deemed successful.

I personally fully support this move. It certainly does not address the abysmal media payout situation we find ourselves in, but it does definitely mitigate the error of fan accessibility.

Gotta find new ways to provide service and attract viewers, since cable esta dying.

Somebody tell me how to get this going through my Roku 1.  There is apparently no twitter app for Roku, but there appear to be some workarounds.

It's like Texas weather, just wait a minute and someone will create an app for that. 

I've had success streaming Twitter feeds via Chromecast to my TV sets. I've also got a six year old Sony Blueray DVD player that connects to the internet. At first it just had Sony and Netflix as streaming services but now it's got Amazon, Hulu, the ACC network, Deutche Welle and at least a dozen more. Every time it does a software update, more services seem to be added!

Yes, and if you're over 40-50 in age, you're screwed.  Technology is hard to keep up with.

But I'm 59. And although it took less than an hour, there is a Twitter to Roku fix.

If my 83 year old dad can figure out how to run his Roku to watch games most anyone can.

You had one wish and this is what you blew it on?

Well, I was gonna wish for an end to disease and sickness,  but then I wouldn't be able to watch football.

I wonder how many games will be on here.

Sucks for those of us who care about video or audio quality.
