Little-known TV upgrade provides your telly with more than 300 free extra channels – and you don’t need to sign up
PEOPLE are just realising they can unlock even more free TV channels thanks to the internet.
There's a growing number of so-called FAST channels, which stands for Free Ad-Supported Streaming Television.
Basically, they're like any other TV channel that caries advertising except they rely on broadband to reach your telly, instead of an aerial or satellite.
Some don't even require any special kit for it or the need to sign up.
One little-known option people have started to discover is Plex.
It has more than 300 channels available to watch.
Or you can select programmes and movies on demand.
Many smart TVs have a Plex app available, including LG and Samsung.
Or you can watch from the iOS and Android app, as well as a Fire TV stick.
Alternatively, you can stick to Google Chrome or another web browser.
