Simple.TV Now on Windows Phone 8 Devices

by  • 

Simple.TV is another streaming multimedia service but they’re now on Windows Phone 8 devices. I like the idea of these services but the problem is the data usage. The price of data on our phones is ridiculous and I don’t think I’d spend my money or use my limited data to stream a movie or TV show to my phone personally. Sure you can use wi-fi but it’s not available everywhere and from my experience my phone signal is never that good so I’m not sure how well this would even work. I guess it all depend where you are but I know here in Pittsburgh, AT&T isn’t the greatest, I’m lucky if I get three bars on my phone most of the time.
