Given it works fine on other devices, my finger would be pointing squarely at Amazon for the user experience being shit (and I've heard loads of other people complaining about the same issue).
You are probably right, I’ll cancel the subscription via Amazon and go direct to Discovery. I have the standalone app already but it asks for my login details but there aren’t any as it’s done through Amazon account.
If you do think about buying something new and gadgety, it works great on the Apple telly. The only down side of Apple TV is bbc iPlayer doesn’t do subtitles which in my house is a fucking ball ache.
