Title: How do you watch MLP?
Post by: Julius on 2012 Nov 09, 19:04:52
I'm curious, how does everypony here watch MLP?

The Hub? YouTube? iTunes? Other?

I watch it on YouTube from a channel called "alianzabrony", which has the episodes in HD (At least that's how it looks from my iPhone!) with Spanish subtitles. I speak and understand English obviously, but sometimes it's hard to make out a word or two, and having those subtitles there help. ^-^

I'm not sure how fast they upload the episodes though, I only became a brony in July. Which YouTube channels do you guys recommend? :P

I've watched it on the hub before but I mainly watch it on Youtube or my sister's Netflix account, on Youtube I just search for an episode name and it usually pops up and usually has HD versions although depending on your screen that may not matter.

We only just recently got our DirectTV back, but I'll probably end up watching it on Youtube anyways.  ^-^

I watch the new ones straight from the Hub, then watch them on Youtube afterward.
Prediction: By the time both parts of the Season 3 premiere are done, they will be up on Youtube by the dozens. Trust me. :]

Glad to see bronies are fast at uploading too! lol

We don't have The Hub here in Venezuela, and our iTunes store sucks so I use a United States account. Problem with that is I have a different currency so I can't purchase anything (I rely on free downloads, if you hadn't noticed)! :P

Gotta love YouTube and Hasbro for not taking the episodes down! ^-^

Youtube and Netflix, since we have HD channels instead of paying more for more channels.

New Episodes: The HUB or YouTube.
Re-runs: On Demand, YouTube, or Netflix.

Youtube for already aired episodes and Ustream and Jacobtv for new episodes  ^-^

Discovered the show on Hub, and then lost it about month after, watched all of season 2 on Youtube, and now I'm watching the show mainly on Hub, now that I have it back.

Also YouTube, and last season they were pretty quick at getting them up. I was able to find them in HD just a few hours after the show aired. I'm going to try one of the streams today, though, don't want to wait a few hours if I don't have to.

Post by: sorikuXIII on 2012 Nov 10, 09:11:26
When I first found out about the show I watched the first episode on youtube then ended up watching both seasons to the end and now I watch it on the hub whenever possible  X3

Generally I watch the show on TV whenever I can, though I have do watch episodes on youtube if I feel like watching a particular episode that's not on at the time.

Turns out the subtitles versions come out three to four days after the original episode airs. Hmm... Not bad but... I want ponies now... :\

I watch it on youtube. My Cable company charge extra for the hub with some kind of package I don't need and can't afford. It pains me to watch something for free but I really don't have a choice.

Netflix for when I want to watch Seasons 1 and 2. New episodes through youtube as a single show just isn't worth adding cable TV to my monthly bills.

Spoiler: show

I also use youtube for the new episodes as netflix won't have them yet.  Bronies are amazingly fast at uploading the episodes, I found a few channels with the new episode after work Saturday afternoon, which means they were on Youtube 5 hours after airing!

Usually watch streams and then netflix, just because of the HD version! Popcorn and all :P

I have the hub, but i like to see what other people are saying. So i usual have the channel on in the background while i see it streaming. (Mostly on Bronystate.)

Post by: Moonkiss on 2012 Nov 17, 11:45:11
Usually, I watch it on the Hub. If I miss it, I'll use Youtube. On a last resort- due to the major lag- I'll watch it on Livestream.

I watch episodes on livestream. Then, if my family interrupts or the livestream lags ever so horribly (and both happen too often), I watch the episode again on Youtube later on. If I'm really lucky, I watch epiodes on the Hub channel.

Best way I know: If you're subscribed to Netflix instant streaming, it's on there. And new episodes? Just find them on YouTube.

Then it must be on Netflix in USA only. In that case, YouTube. Even if you have Hub. ALWAYS YOUTUBE. Cable makes you wait for a specific time on a specific day for ONE episode that you can't even pick.

Would make sense, seeing as it's a US program, and The Hub is USA only. No TV channel airs MLP in England, and I'm fairly sure the UK Netflix doesn't display shows from US TV channels.

I usually watch mine on Synchtube with my cousin, a few hours after it has aired.

Two episodes from season 3 on mobile phone to find some closet bronies in bypassing guys from my class and other episodes on livestream/youtube
Common result: Nobody cared what cartoon I am watching, only one guy noticed that's my little pony but he said only that his younger sister has vhs tape with it(I asked him if it's rescue at midnight castle from '84 he got stunned) lol
