Meh: Anyone using PlayOn Desktop or PlayOn Cloud DVR?

I acknowledge I don’t fully understand the PlayOn system, but I guess I don’t quite see any advantage to PlayOn Cloud?

From my cursory reading of their literature, PlayOn Cloud only stores recordings for 30 days, so I would still have to download to a local device if, for example, I was recording an entire season of a show for later binge viewing. Plus, PlayOn Cloud has an additional fee for each show you record?

So I’m not quite seeing any advantage to PlayOn Cloud, unless it’s the fact that I don’t have to have my target device turned on and connected in order to record a show?

Any feedback is appreciated.
