Cancelled OliveNet IPTV
Hi,
Has anyone received an email from OliveNet IPTV service saying they are cancelling the service from today June 1st?
Can anyone recommend a UK TV provider that's legal?

Useful notes streaming UK TV Spain and IPTV
1. Re- selling others broadcasters copyright material is illegal unless a licence.
2. No such agreements agreements for IPTV have been published and granted in Spain with UK broadcasters, copyright content makes it almost impossible without substantial costs and rights issues.
3. IPTV operators can normally carry FTA channels in their 'own country,' In UK viewers just need a TV licence.
4. Programme content has Geo restrictions due to copyright content..
5. Even FTA broadcasters like SKY News or CNN have problems streaming via You Tube, music rights being an example, the reason Sky News or CNN have no commercials on You Tube.
6. There is no ban on individuals using private VPN's and very popular for watching streamed home country content, most broadcasters will however ask for a home country address. (Which I'm sure most can provide)
7. People can use things like Fire Sticks but now Mini PC's are now very cheap, below Amazon link 'just 100 Euros' this combined with a VPN service HDMI lead and blue tooth keyboard, people can load things like BBC iPlayer and other TV links, watch You Tube and also surf the internet for very little money.

8. Every now and again raids takes place on IPTV operators for pirating and re-selling TV services, to include those who offered bootleg TV with internet packages. As this BBC link. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-47653654
