Glitchy

Defaults to NBC sports on live view, not to NBC network or to last channel watched. After starting live view it will interrupt a the show 15 sec later asking you to sign up. Doesn’t show local channels. Requires local cable subscription. Doesn’t NBC get it? We don’t want cable TV anymore. Give us a smooth app that is easy to use and watch local and national shows without having to restart the app and go through 3-5 steps each time.
