Cheapest Sports Streaming?

It’s starting to look like Sling will have the cheapest sports package this year. Fubo went full send on their price. Is there a new app this year?

I had a lot of issues with Sling during the CWS so I'm just going with YouTube TV this year.
Sometimes it's better just to pay a little more.

They have that new feature to watch up to 4 games in one screen. Pretty pumped for that.

FUBO is good, too. I have used it the last two years and have had no problems. I am looking at YouTube for this year, though because FUBO went up to $72 a month.
I have a 4K TV and have heard they stream sports in 4K. Is this true....anybody?

Its not included the Base Price. It is an Add-On. Not sure if the price.
ETA: just checked. $4.99/month for first 12 months. $9.99/month after 12 months. Free 30 day trial.

Hulu Live has been pretty solid.

YouTube TV is the best thing going. Great picture quality, no buffering issues, solid interface, great channel lineup.
And they now have the option to split the screen into 4 quadrants and watch 4 games at once, loke you used to be able to do on the old PSVue tv. Looking forward to that.

I looked at Hulu, but they are owned by Walt Disney company and are in that mix of ABC, Walt Disney, ESPN...and I just can't give them money.
Typically I do not make politics an issue for football, actors, musicians unless they make it an issue.

Yes. I realize a lot of people are going to criticize this but it is what it is.

Believe I paid $62.99 for the first three months of YouTube TV and $72.99 per month after.

Checking around and Fubo is the only streaming service that I have found that carries Bally Sports. Braves play on Bally and I follow the Braves.
I have never had streaming TV service before. What is the quality of the reception? I have very fast internet.

I wish I had gone to streaming long ago. On FUBO I have always gotten a really good picture. Excellent, I would say. I put a small antenna on my roof for local channels (FUBO includes those) then subscribe to a major streaming service during football season and cancel after the National Championship game.
I also went with Netflix and Amazon Prime. We get HBO Max free with our internet service which is 1,000MPS.
So, when we had some typed of Dish service (at one time or other had Dish or DirecTv) along with internet we were paying $227 a month with no extras.
Now during off season from football we pay $105 for Netflix, HBOMax, Amazon Prime and fast internet....along with all the local network channels and also get extra channels like PBS and TV Land, etc.
During football season that jumps to about $170, for the same services plus FUBO/YouTube with tons of channels. During the season we don't even have time to watch everything we have. With the antenna and DVR we record all the local channel content we want and watch that during the week and on Saturdays it is college football all day long.

I actually had more problems with Dish/DirecTV during rain storms than I have with streaming.

I'll probably just go without. It is plenty good with the normal stream. Thanks for checking and the update!

I didn't have any issues with sling and the cws. That's weird.
