Streaming content through devices like Fire TV Sticks has become a popular choice for many households. However, not all methods of accessing shows, movies, and sports content are legitimate.
To address concerns about illegal streaming, there is now a legal alternative for online content consumption. eBay is now offering the PLEIO, a puck-shaped device powered by Freely that provides access to over 50 live channels for free. Freely also includes on-demand content, a TV guide, personalized recommendations, and the ability to pause or rewind live TV.
In addition to television services, the PLEIO box offers access to more than 250 games through the PLEIO Extra platform, complete with a controller. Buyers receive a complimentary 12-month subscription to PLEIO Extra, followed by a £9.99 monthly fee if continued. The device also supports 4K streaming and comes with a voice-enabled remote control.
The PLEIO box is available for £99 on eBay and Amazon. While similar to Sky’s Stream box in functionality, the primary difference lies in the content range. Sky Stream offers a broader premium lineup, including services like Sky Sports, Sky Cinema, Netflix, Disney+, and HBO Max, with monthly fees starting from £15.
For households seeking free TV content over broadband, the PLEIO and Freely combo could be a practical choice. Those prioritizing live sports, movies, and premium entertainment may find Sky Stream more suitable.
