You are billed every 30 days from the day you subscribed to the Bitbop&#8230;<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">Currently some of the shows are free, you can see TV shows and Movies, and move them into the queue to watch from your BlackBerry. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">I signed up for the beta and the free account. I downloaded the BitBop app to my BlackBerry Tour 9630, 5.0. At first I had trouble getting it to work on my BlackBerry. I went into chat on the pc with BitBop support and they were extremely helpful, so I have to give their customer service a five star rating. I deleted and reinstalled the app, with flawless issues. I did find however that streaming clips worked, but free tv shows did not work as well to stream. I had to download the show to watch. The 22 minute show was separated into six chapters to watch but it is commercial free. Downloading the show took about 8 minutes or so. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">When you download the app, you have New shows, Queue, Browse, Search, and Account. In the Account you can choose how you Download and Stream, Account Information, Communications, Payment Methods, Subscriptions, Follow Preferences, FAQ, Sign out, and retrieve your Forgotten Password, and the Version. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">I wanted to save some screenshots, but while I had the application open, it wouldn&#8217;t allow me to take screenshots. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">All in all, it&#8217;s nice to be able to download your shows and watch them. For $10 a month, you could actually have the ability to watch tv and movies. There&#8217;s several different shows and I&#8217;m sure there&#8217;ll be more. I usually just put my movies on my microsd card, but it would be nice to have the ability to stream shows to my BlackBerry. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">Some of the shows available are: Bones, NCIS, CIS, National Geographic Explorer, Futurama, The Office, 24, Family Guy, and 30ROCK, and Glee amongst others. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">I would recommend this to you if you were looking for a way to watch your shows wherever you are. Don&#8217;t miss those fun ones you&#8217;d love to keep. I&#8217;m not sure how long the Beta will last, but try it out and let us know what you think. <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitbop.com\/\" >Read more about Bitbop here <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitbop.com\/\" >Download the beta Bitbop application to your phone here<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><i>You&#8217;re reading a story which originated at <a href=\"http:\/\/blackberrysync.com\">BlackBerrySync.com<\/a>, Where you find BlackBerry News You Can Sync With&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This story is sponsored by the new <a href=\"http:\/\/getappstore.com\">BlackBerry Sync Mobile App Store<\/a>.
