People who have invested their hard earned cash in a great product like the Slingbox Classic or AV are now being forced into upgrading their units if they want to take advantage of the Slingplayer for iPhone software. This is a completely unacceptable approach from Sling and they are running the risk of alienating a huge section of their loyal fanbase All slingbox owners should have the right to use the Slingplayer for iPhone software

Sling is betting that we will just buy new hardware instead of demanding support for the devices we already own. Post a link to this page on their official Facebook wall right now and tag their support team. We need them to see that we are not going to quietly replace perfectly good equipment.

The momentum behind this push is real and shows how many of us are sick of being forced into unnecessary upgrades. Please post the petition link on your Facebook wall today. Tag Sling in your posts and demand that our older units keep working.

Ridiculous. I paid good money for this hardware and I expect the software to keep working. Don't punish the loyal customers just to force an upgrade.

total rip off. my classic still works just fine so why force me to buy a new one? greedy move.

been a fan for years but this is just low. not everyone wants to throw away perfectly good electronics every time they update an app.
