AN easy-to-miss streaming service that doesn’t cost a penny has just been upgraded with even more channels.
It’s available for free on Amazon Fire Sticks and takes just seconds to download.
Sling TV offers an ad-supported service called Sling Freestream that doesn’t cost a penny[/caption]
The service is called Sling Freestream, and offers no-cost content supported by ads.
You might have missed it because it’s tucked away inside the Sling TV app.
Normally you need to pay for Sling TV so you might never have downloaded it.
But Freestream is available without paying any upfront fees – and there’s no monthly subscription either.
The only catch is that you’ll need to view commercials, but it’s a small price to pay.
The good news is that you’ll be able to enjoy over 430 free live channels as part of Freestream.
And Sling Freestream also delivers upwards of 41,000 on-demand movies and TV shows.
That’s a giant catalogue that should keep you busy for months.
But the library is also updated all the time.
For instance, Sling Freestream added these seven channels this week:
- Adventure Earth
- Always Funny Pranks and Fails
- A History
- A Travel
- H2O
- Real Disaster Channel
- Comedy Twisted
- Mirror
STREAM COME TRUE!
There’s a growing number of ways to enjoy TV for free on your Amazon Fire Stick.
Monthly bills for premium apps like Netflix and Disney+ can quickly add up.
But by switching to free options, you can instantly cut those bills.
