THIS TV SUCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I WANT MY MONEY BACK
HIGH Risk Investment
The main device is no-copy, which is easy to overlook, if you take a glance at the inventory and see everything else has copy perms. But the real problem is, if something goes sideways or if you have a question, you're kind'a screwed.
The guy says to contact him with questions/concerns/etc. I sent both an IM and a notecard. That's been about a month ago now, with no response. Judging from these other reviews, I'd say my experience isn't a unique one.
It's a shame. Seems like a nice product, but no-copy always makes things a huge risk. Add onto that the complete lack of customer support, and you're looking at a high-cost item with zero safety net. The fact that they say to contact them, when they seem to have no intention of actually interacting with customers, lands this baby at a one-star for putting forward a false sense of security.
Bad form.
1/2 Stars
This tv appears to be all-inclusive with easy log ins and access. Compared to my Kosmi, which cost half as much, this is a major disappointment. ZERO customer service. No functionality. No response from owner. HUGE rip off.
POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE
When you choose the help menu, it plainly says to email me or instant message: Support IM: Dieter Salomon. I've reached out twice now, to no avail.
So happy with this media player!!
I bought this media player a while ago. I think it's worth the price, you have so many options. With most other media players you don't have that many options, and you often pay a lot more Linden. Thank you for keeping the price reasonable. Showed the media player to my friends, and most of them bought it right away. Is definitely worth its 5 stars.
