PlayOn Cloud
Has anyone used PlayOn Cloud? According to their site, it's "The mobile app that lets you record and download streaming shows and movies to watch offline."
GabeU, I don't use PlayOn, but according to their website:
How much does PlayOn Cloud cost and how do I buy recording credits?
The PlayOn Cloud iOS app is free to download from the App Store and Google Play. You pay a low per-recording charge (or recording credit) which includes 7 days of storage in your cloud locker and unlimited downloads of that recording to any PC or storage device during the complimentary storage period. You can purchase recording credits in-app or buy recording credits from our website.
It sounds like you pay a monthly price for storage only if you want to store something more than the complimentary 7 days.
EDIT: I think the info below clarifies this even more:
Can I store my recordings for longer than the complimentary storage period?
Once downloaded, you can store your recordings locally for as long as you'd like. We will only store them for you for 7 days in your cloud locker. If you'd like to keep them in the cloud for longer, take a look at our Cloud Recording and Storage plans.

This is correct.
I've also found I can move the downloaded files from my phone so don't really see the need for cloud storage past the 7 days.

That's what I would do, or at least something similar. I also have a couple of extra 500GB laptop drives that I bought USB external drive enclosures for, so I have plenty of local storage. I wouldn't need the cloud storage for much more than a day when I stream something to it.
