Amazon Fire TV to add Watch TCM

https://willmckinley.wordpress.com/2015/09/14/tcm-dives-into-streaming-with-amazon/

I'm not sure when this starts, but I hope this is the first step to Watch TCM becoming available on other streaming devices like Roku and Chromecast. If not this will definitely make me consider buying a Fire Stick.

I bought an Amazon Fire TV Stick over the weekend, but when I checked on Amazon Watch TCM isn't available for Fire TV yet. Has anyone heard anything about when it is coming? Thanks.

I have a feeling that it will be tied into having cable or satellite service like most other watch apps for cable networks. I also don't know whether that can be internet only of if TV service is required.

Update: According to Jeff Baumgartner at http://www.multichannel.com/news/networks/turner-classic-movies-tees-fire-tv-app/393744:

"Hi, was told that they are working out some of the technical aspects of this app, but hope to have it available as soon as possible. I'll update this when I get a better fix on the anticipated timing. JB"

Apparently the link I posted earlier isn't working. Hopefully this one will: http://www.multichannel.com/news/networks/turner-classic-movies-tees-fire-tv-app/393744

Watch TCM for Amazon Fire TV became available yesterday, but I still have a problem. Like I thought,you have to have a cable subscription with one of the listed cable systems. But unfortunately for me, Charter isn't one of the systems listed yet, even though several other smaller local systems in my area are, so I still can't get it. It really doesn't make sense because the versions for PC and Android phones do list Charter. Hopefully this is a short term problem, but I won't be surprised if it drags out like having to wait for the app has.

I also meant to add that according to the Watch TCM activation page it should be coming soon to Roku. I just hope the "soon" for Roku doesn't take as long as it did for Amazon (7 months), and that it will be available for Charter by then.

I wish the Warner Archives streaming site would carry a larger percentage of their TV series and movies. Also I wish that you could rent all the movies on ClassicFlix by streaming.
