Hi all
my parents are thinking about buying an android box. I have searched the internet an can not work out if its worth it for them. My dad likes his football and people have said you can watch almost every channel on one of these through mobdob???
Surely if they were this good everyone would have one already.
has anyone got one?
Thanks

The watch almost every channel will be in many cases via an illegal stream .
The stream may or may not be of good quality .0 -
Well, other people may understand what you're going on about (although the lack of responses may suggest otherwise) but I haven't got a clue. Would you like to try again and use a few more words this time?0

'Android box' ??
sounds like something illegal! maybe thats why its difficult to get a response
If you do manage to get one, good luck with the after sales service!

Thank you for the info above, it can be hard to keep up with the different devices available. Just bought a Now tv box for the might sum of £10 which is my idea of 'splashing out'.
I think it is only a matter of time before a hack becomes available for that box. We are certainly living in interesting times amid the 'internet of things'.0 -
The android app is Mobdro not Mobdob..:)
It's not available in the official app store anymore. You can get the APK online if you search around.
Some people love it, others aren't keen. It doesn't have HD channels on it AFAIK.
Now TV is cheap as chips, but expensive to watch Sky sport on.Drinking Rum before 10am makes you
