Amazon Firestick and Acorn TV

If I have a Amazon Firestick do I have to pay to get Acorn?  Love the English shows.

Yes, Acorn is a pay for viewing App.

I had Acorn all last winter and loved it.  I watched all my favorites such as Vera, Midsomer Murders, and Doc Martin.  I cancelled in the summer because I was outdoors so much.  The price is very reasonable.

Yes, but cheaper than some other apps...last time I only paid $4.99/mo.

 

I usually wait until I can binge a few shows and then watch acorn a lot. Then I cancel and wait for my shows to have new season and sign up again.

 

It is very easy to start and stop a channel!   

 

 

Do you have Amazon's Prime app?  If you do, there are a ton of wonderful British shows on Prime...Endeavor, Midsomer Murders, Death in Paradise, Durrells in Corfu, Poldark etc.  They episodes on  Prime are one season behind network showings.

 

Final edit...just remembered that if you've never had Acorn before, there is usually a free trial period offered.

 

Enjoy!!
