should we store the EPG infos in MySQL db or remote EPG server ? that's mean kantv will become to a client-server application? It's a good idea for apk's user??? actually we should made a complete open source phone OS(base on AOSP) for Android phone avoid some commercial apk collecting/uploading device infos and user's data very easily

we don't know whether this feature is compliant with China's laws & regulations?

and we don't know how to handle various problems caused by GFW, pls refer to #16

implemented since kantv 1.0 (set up a custom playlist and then use this software to watch the content of the custom playlist).

users from Mainland China can't use this feature because of powerful GFW(enhanced by latest advanced AI technology).
