About Area 51

Area 51 is a solid choice for streaming IPTV on a budget.

There’s a lot of buzz around it, and some people are saying is the best way to watch live TV on Firestick and Fire TV.

Many people are interested in this streaming service because of the exceptionally low price of $6 a month, which gives you access to hundreds of streaming channels from all over the world.

Cheap
Lots of international content

What does Area 51 do?

Area 51 is an app for Fire Stick, Fire TV, and other Android devices that lets you stream hundreds of cable channels from around the world for only $5 a month. It basically acts as a full replacement for live cable.

It also provides dedicated sections for NFL, NCAA, NBA, NHL, as well as PPV and XXX.

There are literally thousands of channels from all over the world to choose from, so no matter what part of the world you are from you should be able to find what you are looking for.

In our experience, this app works significantly better than the free Kodi addons out there. The streams tend to be more reliable and higher quality than the ones you don’t pay for, so if you are looking for a cheap cable replacement, Area 51 is a solid choice.

However, we have had a couple of problems with this service.

Number one, they are often out of stock. If you go to their site, you might see an error message when you try to order.

Area 51 limits the number of customers that use it so that their servers don’t get overloaded. They want to make sure that all the streams are fast and reliable.

This makes sense and is great for the people who already have an account. However, this is obviously not helpful if you can’t even get the program in the first place.

Supposedly there will be more stock in the future, but in the meantime, you may want to consider another option for your Amazon fire tv or stick
