These services are interfaces for interacting with data that YOU create

I did not know Aaron Swartz, unless you count having copies of a person’s entire digital life on your forensics server as knowing him. I did once meet his father, an intelligent and dedicated…

This has also been my experience for a long time. I have personally spent more money than I'd like to admit trying to find quality and reliability. From the feedback after 2 months in beta, it streams flawlessly (according to me and everyone else who has used it. No complaints so far).
I like these free solutions, and I still think that's the way to go for a majority of people. However, I really hate ads and ad-block detectors, buffering, low resolution streams and a user interface that does not consider the user's experience. These are the problems solved by this app. Also, not easy to come by good TV guide data and sports guide with match highlights. It's delightful to use and it's very reliable.
EDIT: If you're on macOS, I'd recommend getting the 1-month subscription first to see if this is for you or not. Try it out for yourself and make your own decision, don't let my opinion or other comments sway you :)
Thank you and great question. To be transparent, there is a chance that this could happen. I've given this some thought. Two scenarios:
First, if it attracts too much attention, Raycast could simply shut down the extension. In this event, you could still continue streaming on other devices (like your TV/Phone) but you will miss out on all the features that make it so nice to use on Raycast. If you only want to continue using it on Raycast and not on your other devices, I am willing to give you a full refund if you subbed for a year.
The more unlikely scenario (at this stage), the servers are shut down. Here, the app can be migrated to work with another provider.
