There’s so many providers and sketchy ppl you can pay for access to IPTV and there’s even plenty of free playlists that provide tons of content. Who’s actually providing these services and how does it work that theres so many middlemen/resellers?

Go to Chinese Amazon sites, search IPTV subscription, ask for a free trial.
Download an IPTV app, smarter or tivimax and then input the free trial details. If you find the experience to be decent and without freezes then buy a subscription. Generally offered is 1ml month, 3, 6 12 and 24 month.
I wouldn’t recommend over 12 months
I heard that AliExpress cracked down on these and you can’t find them there anymore.
I bought them recently, they just don’t have it in the name. It a little confusing because they have shipping times and everything but it is still the same thing
No one talk about providers cos when you find a good one it’s better not too much people find the same or it will be taken down so people usually don’t talk about good providers.
In resume talking about your IPTV provider brings you bad luck.
Poorly. Just use Kodi and Debrid.
It’s a chain of providers.
Generally speaking, you have your wholesaler who sells to individuals or to other iptv resellers (eg. bulk discount of monthly subs).
A wholesaler will generally pay monthly to other source stream providers from a variety of sources to create a full catalogue of channels to provide to individuals and resellers. The wholesaler usually does the EPG management also - basically sources EPG from a variety of data sources.
So UK channels might come from one source, Canadian channels from other, some channels are on this cable provider, others on another - could be different sources. These sources are people who buy cable/satelite set top boxes and subscriptions to then stream them to the wholesalers.
A source might sell to 100+ wholesalers, and then those wholesalers will have 1000+ of subscribers each.
Generally, don’t subscribe with a re-seller…it’s your best chance that you’ll have to find a new subscription. You’ll get the best support at wholesale and they hang around longer, although being bigger makes them targets for raids or even to close up shop and take all future subscription money.
Thanks this makes sense. Sounds sketchy as fuck so I’ll just be sticking with torrents lol.
It’s one of those things where paying in advance is not a good idea because of how sketch it can be. And you should not use identifiable information when creating an account or paying. E.g. a good provider only accepts crypto.
The only wholesaler I’m currently aware of has been operating for 5+ years the length I’ve been aware of their existence. So there’s definitely trustworthy providers out there. I have no idea how to research good providers since IPTV talk gets shut down every where.
