So let's add some complexity.

How would something like this work if you have 3 primary televisions? Can you network these devices?


In my experience (and that's really utilizing Netflix and Hulu), this isn't an issue. If you're getting internet via cable with good speed, you should be fine. We stream to three TVs, no issues. You do have to have a Roku, Chromecast, game console, or other "smart" device (TV, Blu-ray player) to facilitate the streaming, but it isn't difficult at all.

And I like this Sling TV option. Gonna have to consider dropping Dish (again). I did it successfully while Aereo was up and running, but the networks got them shut down after a couple of years.

We cancelled our cable subscription when moving to our new house last year and got Sling TV instead. It has worked well for us, but unlike other streaming services (Netflix, Hulu, etc.), it only allows one feed per subscription, which means you can only be logged in to the app on one device at a time. That's not an issue for us, but might be for others.

Using Sling, Netflix, and our HD antenna has not given me any regret over cutting cable.
