I think MGM + has a better than average on-demand library of movies. The channels usually are old hat and rarely show anything new(once in a while there will be a new release).

Re: MGM+ streaming service (formerly EPIX NOW)

I used to be able to watch EPIX through their app with my Dish subscription but with the change to MGM+, I can’t find a way to log in to the new app using my Dish credentials. Any way to do this or is the only way to watch MGM+ in the app is to subscribe directly to it?

Two things they could do to pump up subscriptions:

Announce they are picking (back) up Pennyworth for a 4th and final season.
Get Brad Wright’s Stargate project into production.

I don’t think James Gunn cares about Pennyworth. Also the show is owned by WB/DC and they ultimately control it now and decided to not make anymore.

Is the Epix app still there? On my Roku, there's still an Epix app so I logged in there with my Xfinity account and it worked. There's also an MGM+ app but it also was asking me to subscribe.

I know there used to be an EPIX app for cable subscribers and an EPIX Now app for direct to consumers. I cancelled my EPIX subscription last month and got the annual plan instead so I'm using the MGM+ app. The EPIX Now app is gone, but like was mentioned the EPIX app is still there and asks for my TV provider information.

There should be an app called "EPIX Stream with TV Package" or something similar for people looking to login via their television provider.

The MGM+ app is only for direct to consumer subscriptions.

The MGM Plus website has an email and phone number. Maybe try asking them how do I stream if I already have a paid linear subscription or if it's simply not available at this time.
