Zeam review

Free streaming is great, but sometimes, it can be a bit overwhelming to consider what streaming services you should get and what content to watch, considering that the options literally come from all over the world. Sometimes, we just want to hear from our immediate community. Zeam is the free streaming service for local television. While the options vary from location to location, Zeam guarantees that the content they air for you is relevant to you and your community, all for free, without a log-in.

What does it do differently?

Zeam pretty much does everything any free streaming service would do. The only difference is that it focuses primarily on local television, which does mean a leaner library, but it’s much more relevant to the place you live in.

What does it offer?

Zeam does offer an array of local programming, live and on-demand, all for free, but it really depends on what your local stations are broadcasting in your area. However, most of America would be able to access content from at least one of the major networks like ABC, NBC, FOX, and ABC.
