re: Is there any reasoning to this?

FUBO TV is the way if you’re any kind of a sports fan. You can watch local sports, and they also have the same programming YouTube TV has.

And you can choose your own multi-view instead of just what youtube offers. Its’s pricier, and I originally switched to Fubo to watch the Astros. Now I keep it all year. There’s always something on.

Don't trust any of these SEC knuckleheads, just me.

Your neighbor's experience might be influenced by a few technical factors that can affect how different streaming services perform with limited internet speeds. While both Hulu and YouTubeTV are similar in terms of what they provide, they may handle internet speeds differently due to several reasons: Video Compression & Streaming Quality: Hulu and YouTubeTV may use different video compression technologies. Some services are more aggressive in reducing the video quality to adjust for lower speeds, which could make Hulu feel more stable on a slow connection. If Hulu lowers the resolution or bitrate more effectively, it may stream more smoothly than YouTubeTV, even if the overall speed is the same. Adaptive Streaming: Both services use adaptive streaming, which means they adjust the video quality based on your connection. However, they might handle fluctuating speeds differently. If Hulu responds quicker to drops in internet speed, that could explain why it seems more stable in your neighbor’s experience. Data Usage Management: Different services optimize how they use bandwidth. If Hulu has better optimization or uses less data for the same quality compared to YouTubeTV, it may appear to perform better with slower internet. Server Location and Latency: Sometimes, the location of the servers you're connecting to can impact performance. If Hulu’s servers are geographically closer or have better routing for your region, the data may get to you faster, resulting in smoother playback compared to YouTubeTV. Device Compatibility: Some devices handle different streaming services better. If your neighbor is using a device that is better optimized for Hulu over YouTubeTV, that could also impact performance. Both services should theoretically perform similarly with the same internet speed, but slight differences in how they handle video compression, buffering, or server connections can make one feel better than the other in certain environments.

I had DISH at the farm and they were going to $150 a month when my 2 year plan ran out. They would not negotiate. I had CSpire internet and TV at home. Switched to YouTubeTV and put in a Hughesnet satellite dish at the farm. YouTubeTV goes anywhere so I save probably $100 per month with the switch. The download speed is good (usually around 180 mbps) but the upload is slow. Frustrating to use a computer sometimes but overall, quite pleased with the switch. But I can't answer your question about HULU v. YouTubeTV.
