And more recently, Rabbit TV Plus has added even more ways to watch. And since there is nothing to actually install, the simple register-and-log-in process makes it pretty simple. It was initially targeted at anyone on a PC or Mac - including those who barely know how to use them - to easily access streaming TV through simple selections. The primary audience is made up of the 30-65+ age group, specifically those who don’t know where to look or don’t care to try looking for the most accessible online content.

Millennials might not be impressed by Rabbit TV Plus, but the service isn’t really going after the tech savvy among us. It’s tough to put together a solid number on exactly how much content Rabbit TV Plus offers. Channels that require a cable subscription include ESPN, TBS, TNT, TruTV, Cartoon Network, Fox, AMC, and Disney, similar to the TV Everywhere apps you would find on a smart phone or streaming device. To make things even more complex, an extra tier of channels requires an active cable subscription to watch, making the service’s claim on its website that it is a “great alternative to cable” seem a little more dubious. Sometimes you’ll see both buttons, which means some episodes of a show are available for free, but others are pay-per-view, either individually or by the whole season. Otherwise, you’ll see a “Watch Free” button for some shows and movies, while others will show an “Order Now” button. It’s possible (and recommended in most cases) to browse only free content by selecting “Free Only” in the top-left corner of the site. What makes this even tougher to gauge is that recently, Rabbit TV Plus has been moving increasingly toward on-demand content, and more specifically, on-demand content that you need to pay for on top of your subscription. But just a little bit lower on the page it says 500+ streaming channels are available to watch on an iPhone, iPad, or smartphone. The service’s website claims 2,000+ live channels, as well as 100,000+ movies, 400,000+ TV episodes, and 20,000+ streaming radio stations.


The service has also added several international channels such as Eurosport, RT, and ZDF, among others. In recent years, the service has moved away from its claims of “thousands” of free TV channels, swapped for a similarly bold tagline: “all the world’s entertainment in one place.” Available live broadcasts include networks like The CW, PBS, Ion, Univision, Telemundo, This, and MeTV (all of which can be found over the air with an HD antenna), as well as news and shopping channels like Bloomberg, MSNBC, QVC, and HSN. It will even fold in movies and TV shows from Netflix and Hulu, assuming you have a subscription to those services.
