- Won't play in background. - Doesn't maintain context. If 'watching live' and accidentally touch screen to see other clip, when you tap 'back,' returns you to main page - not 'watch live.' so you must tap 'watch live' AGAIN. I'm NOT going to watch THAT MANY COMMERCIALS in a recorded, streaming show. Streaming show is labeled 'LIVE' and does not provide slider bar times/controls. Awful ap.

It would be a good app, but the overabundance of advertisements within EVERY article is annoying at best. We understand the need for advertisements, but please keep your readers in mind. Almost every other paragraph is another advertisement. Deleting app.
