App allows users to watch premium TV live without a subscription or jailbreak (Update) | 9to5Mac

April 22, 2012 at 7:24 am

Update: As expected, this is not what it seems. Looks like the developer switched all of the advertised premium content over to an ad for futobox.  Premium content vendors take note: people are willing to pay for good streaming content.

A new iOS app released in the App Store this weekend called, “TV English Premium” allows users to watch premium TV stations without a subscription.  Most of the channels on the app are english-centric and include BBC Two, Three, Four, BBC HD, and Eurosport channels, but there are some native USA channels too including: History HD, National Geographic HD, ESPN HD.

We have downloaded and tested the app and it seems to work as advertised.  We only had to pay the one-time app fee of 99 cents and then we were free to browse all the channels the app has to offer.  A couple times the app stopped to buffer but we didn’t experience any other real pain-points.  Needless to say we don’t expect this app to last too long in the app store so you may want to act fast if you’re interested.  It is a universal download for iPad, iPod, and iPhone and is available here [1]  (iPad screenshot and video below). Buyer (obviously) Beware.
