I usually watch hotstar a lot to watch matches of cricket and also the programs that I have missed like crime patrol, savdhaan india, gumraah, etc. The app works for free without any registration you can watch the live as well as recorded shows online. The video quality can be adjusted according to the network.
Hotstar works good for normal sppeds( I am talking about 50 - 80 kb/ps for 180 p video)
