Film On no longer free

No free Film On anymore, 50TL a month with no adverts.  So not bad.

Its a geoblock and to do with the rights holders withdrawing permission to broadcast many channels outside UK - still free in UK but when I switch to using a Turkish IP address I get two minutes of viewing per channel then it redirects to a payment screen.

Its bolloxed a good few Kodi add ons as well.

EDIT: Dunno if using the Turkish IP has confused it, but now from UK it's two mins per channel :(

No problem getting connected either from home or via the company's servers in Tampa, Florida.

It seems the SD version has ended and you now pay for hd.

Mobdro it is then.

Couple of alternatives:

https://www.mobdro.com/

https://tvplayer.com/

They may not have the full range of channels as a lot of apps got their content from FilmOn.

As said below these 2 sites piggy back off Filmon, so will stop after 2 minutes. BBC1 for some reason is not controlled by Filmon so no problem there. Just as well summer is approaching and no staying in too watch Corrie and Emmerdale!!!!!!!!!
Modbro still picks up sky channels etc.

Here's another one:

Again, problems with channels where they'd used FilmOn as a source.

It appears that FilmOn lost a court case brought by the rights holders of their content in the US this week.
