TV service options

[IronInsanity]

I have DirecTV, almost exclusively for the sports. Originally, I got it to watch NFL all access, but that got sold to YouTube. Now, DTV has pulled the plug on all ESPN channels over a pricing squabble. So I'm looking for options that include sports, without going back to cable. So far, Fubo looks pretty interesting with lots of sports channels.

Does anyone have experience with Fubo, or another service that carries all the main sports channels?

I’ve been using YouTube tv for the past few years. Plus is you can share it w family members. No satellite just runs on a smart tv off your WiFi

That's the way Fubo is. Those are the two I'm considering.

Second for YouTube TV. Flawless operation for 3-4 years now. Not a single complaint. Has all the channels I need with none of the bullshit of other services. I have never had buffering issues, either (Fubo and Sling were really bad for this but may have improved). My parents also use it, and not once has Google tried to crack down on it.

I think you have to pay extra for ESPN add-on, though.

I wonder if Fubo owners are as far left as YouTube? I use it for
My music also and endless Obama and Harris adds.

wish X would come out with streaming TV and a cell phone service .
I recently switched from cable to Starlink and it’s been awesome.

The political stuff is specific to each channel (like Comedy Central is a liberal cesspool). I have noticed the default page on YouTube TV tends to push left-leaning programs, but I immediately switch to Live view and it's just TV as normal.

I agree it’s to be expected especially this time of an election year. I just skip passed it as quick as it allows.
Also that’s just YouTube free version website.

YouTube tv seems the same to me as direct tv or any of the rest of them I’ve had in the past.

This shit has gotten out of hand. I enjoy watching my Phillies but not all games are on Hulu. Some Friday night games are on AppleTV and some are on ESPN, others are on Prime. Sometimes you can't even get it. You'll go broke trying to watch one Fuukin season. If I can't find it on what I got, I stream it for free.

Take me back to the days when all your local sports were aired on the local station.

I use uBlock Origin on computer and AdGuard on iPhone, so I never see YouTube ads. It just goes straight to playing the content. There are probably a lot more options if you're using an Android phone.

I appreciate the advice. I subscribed to YouTube TV. It's a 21-day free trial. So far, I like the looks of it. Goodbye DirecTV.

I made the switch last year for the nfl package. Still waiting on my money back from that lawsuit. It takes some getting used to. Especially if you’re an old school channel surfer like me the delay in switching can be annoying. Depending on your other sport of choice I also recommend the espn app. It’s pretty inexpensive and you get a lot of out of market. I got it specifically for hockey and it blows away the centrr ice package
