With TVG now pretty much a monopoly I'm wondering if I'll be stuck with
the lower level tracks.
Anybody know if TVG has or will offer subscriptions? If so can it be streamed to a big screen?

I sent an email to HRTV early in 2014 regarding getting their streaming product on ROKU. I was told they were working on it and it would be in place by the end of the year. I was skeptical, and they have yet to put their product on ROKU. It seems to me that the perfect platform for TVG/HRTV are streaming devices like ROKU, Apple TV, and Amazon's Fire TV products. Many cable companies don't offer both channels, and if they do, they require an extra subscription. By making their streaming products available on these streaming devices, they would be able to reach a much larger audience. Personally, I do not want to watch the races on a computer. I have tried the HRTV to Chromecast thing, and while it works. the quality of the stream on the Chromecast is not that great. I have a ROKU device and subscribe to both NBA League Pass, and MLB Extra Innings, and the quality is excellent and it's in very good quality HD. If TVG/HRTV wants to get an HD signal out to customers, make it available on these streaming devices. It's a no brainer.
