From the FAQ:
>Q: Why is Slingbox being discontinued?
>A: We’ve had to make room for new innovative products so that we can continue to serve our customers in the best way possible.
>Q: Will Slingbox be releasing any new products?
>A: No.
Certainly a refreshing combination of sarcasm and bitterness.
- reaperducer 6y agoSlingbox is owned by Sling. Sling is owned by Echostar, which is also Dish Network. Dish Network is getting into the 5G game in a big way. Since Echostar already uses the Sling technology in its set-top-boxes, I wouldn't be surprised to eventually see a 5G streaming service from Dish that is all Sling-based.
