Well... I thought I was on the verge of understanding why it is so hard for Channels DVR to incorporate Pluto TV into TV everywhere; then a few days ago, I got an e-mail from the streaming service Reelgood stating they had just released a new version of Reelgood with Pluto TV added to it.
Sure enough, Pluto is there functioning just like all the other streaming services that are in Reelgood.
That now makes TWO different services (that I'm aware of) providing Pluto TV in their TV streams.
Soooo... once again, why not Channels DVR?
