What Makes a Great IPTV Service? Let’s Discuss!

So I’ve been going down the rabbit hole of IPTV options lately, not the mainstream ones, but more of the independent/private providers. I'm mainly looking for stable streaming with decent international channels (especially sports and UK stuff), but without breaking the bank or having to deal with super glitchy apps.

I recently came across iptvthone, not sure if anyone here has tried these kinds of services that aren’t as widely talked about. They seem to promise the usual stuff: multi-device access, VOD, EPG, and all that. But I'm wondering how reliable those kinds of platforms really are over time?

Looking forward to you all suggestions!
