Youtube TV

[Shocker]

I realize no one probably cares but fug Youtube TV and that company in general.  Yet another price hike this time +15 dollars a month for total shet channel adds.  Hulu TV will get my biz.  Fuggin greed man.

Canceled them yesterday, as soon as I got the email.

So....Youtube TV adding NFL Network and for an additional fee Redzone.  Nice, but still 10 bucks more than Fubo TV so its debatable, especially if Fubo TV goes up (rumored to go to 60 soon).

Fubo TV - 55 but with Redzone 67...Fubo added ESPN recently which is awesome

Youtube TV 65 but with Redzone 77 (ouch)

Those 2 are the best but getting expensive 

Also, if you sign up for Fubo TV and go to cancel they will give you the first month for 9.99.  50 bucks savings is nice.

Streaming wise both are pretty flawless...Fubo TV does have some 4k sports so added value but limited DVR.  Youtube TV is unlimited DVR if thats your thing.

Hulu TV is lagging behind in streaming quality and honestly their ad model is killing it for me.  Way to many ads.

Any viewer package offering major professional/college sports is going to charge significantly more than those that don't.

I love watching NFL football and other sporting events, but not enough to spend a small fortune for the privilege.

I'll continue to watch as long as they're broadcast free over the air, but if that goes away I'll fill my free time with other activities.  Too many alternatives to be held ransom by greedy sports leagues and broadcasters.

Yep, just cancelled last week. That price hike was just too much to ask. Might as well go with a cable company at that point.

This has totally crossed my mind as well.  I am paying 75 dollars for internet with Spectrum so I would probably save money going with a bundle.

YouTube TV just killed regional sports on Fox Sports as well. From here on out you will see the  Nationally televised game. Per their subreddit.

FuboTV went to 65 as well...YoutubeTV is my option atp.  Ugg

Philo may be a good alternative for some:  $20.00/month w/63 stations and Cloud DVR.

Tablo is a digital DVR for over the air digital broadcasts.  You have to buy the device  $99-$150.00.  There is also an optional $5.00/monthly fee for a two week on screen program guide.  https://www.tablotv.com/.  

I get about 25 stations via antenna, all the major networks, superstations, some movie channels, older TV shows, some sports stations and several others. 

Also have Netflix, Prime, Philo and Acorn.

There is way more quality content than I've time to watch and I'm still saving over $100.00 each month by dropping cable TV.

Hulu killed regional Fox Sports channels too. Whoever owns those channels are beyond moronic, as YTTW and Hulu are 10% of their revenue. Sinclair is the owner by the way.

I'm sticking with YTTV at this point. I pay 49.99 and only 65 for cable at this point. Saving over 115 bucks per month still. So yeah.

I was able to bum a friends directv login and use that for logging into all the live channel apps on my Apple TV. If I had to go back to a service I’d absolutely go back to YouTube TV for the dvr.
