IT looks like if you don't live in a market with local service, you can't live Nbc Abc or Fox as far as I can tell from my scant perusal. I don't think I will be keeping this as there seems to be no way to search for on-demand shows by category. You could by network I suppose but what if I wanted to find all the mysteries or dramas etc. Doesn't look do'oable or it's not labelled. lElise
