nate fisher posted:If you don't need care about cable news (CNN) or sports (ESPN), I don't see a reason why anyone would need a live streaming service. This is unquestionably inaccurate. YouTubeTV's deep rear end Cloud DVR allows me to watch things that are otherwise unavailable on any of the other (non-live) streaming services, and a lot of which is even unavailable for purchase. I do watch a lot of sports though, so I will give you 3 points out of 10.

MarcusSA posted:YouTube Tv on demand legit has the worst ads. If you watch a longer program it seriously gets maddening. So DVR the show. You can select which one you want to watch and skip the commercials.

8-bit Miniboss posted:In the spirit of Christmas, I just received an email from Sling that they are increasing prices. It’s probably not an unwarranted increase. As more rights holders start their own streaming services this will continue to happen. Having said that, YouTubeTV is now a much better value by comparison.

a mysterious cloak posted:Ugh, I'm tired of comparing streaming and cable services. Nothing stands out and, based on the channels we want, there's no real standout. Dish Network seems to hit closest to the sweet spot, even paying $10 or $15 for a couple of set top boxes. We had Dish for years and it was spot on even in crappy weather. The YTTV Cloud DVR is bonkers. That's the main draw for me. I can set it to record every sporting contest by league or team, or even sport if I want to be completely nuts, and more importantly for my gf, my DVR now has every single episode of Law and Order on demand (Thank you YT and WETV.)

wandler20 posted:Does YTTV have live ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, and NFLN? I have ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, NBA, TNT, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, SEC, ACC, ESPNNEWS, FS1, FS2, FSSW, FSSW Plus, NBCSN, MLB, BTN, CBSSN, Tennis, Olympic Channel, and my local UHF affiliates that show regional sports. ESPN+ is a completely different planet.

curried lamb of God posted:Although I've been happy with Xfinity, my bill is going up by $20 next month (and another $30 in a year), so I've started looking at FIOS + a streaming service. I'm leaning toward YTTV, but I'm also open to Sling or Hulu, plus an OTA. I've checked Suppose.tv and they all include the channels I'm interested in. A couple of questions: My broadband is only around 100Mbps and the streaming quality is superior. Even with multiple devices streaming. There is no difference between YTTV and OTA picture quality that I can ascertain. YTTV has a 7 day trial. See for yourself.

phosdex posted:Yes Network, Prime Ticket and Fox Sports West have been dropped it seems. New York and some CA residents affected I think? I'm fine with that. I don't live in those markets and I don't want my sub to increase because gently caress the Yankees. Also, still gently caress Sinclair because they're greedy bitches, who then tried to make it seem like YTTv was the bad guy in all of this for not wanting to pay outrageous prices for the Yankees. gently caress sports as a business.

Proteus Jones posted:From what I recall when I was giving it a test drive a year or so ago, "no-ads" only affects the on-demand and regular Hulu library. I don't recall any additional ads watching Live TV as compared to PS Vue or Sling. I only use Hulu for their library stuff, and let me tell you, their ads are the worst. Especially the “choose your manner of torture” ad breaks. Pay the extra money if you love your parents.
