Need to pivot to a plan B boys. Hulu TV maybe?

Gotta think YouTube TV would cave once they realize how many sports fans use their product


YTTV Caves and they are bringing back ESPN/Disney channels

I use Hulu. I enjoy it. My only complaint is that there is no Bally/Braves. I hope they fix that.

YTTV doesn’t have bally either. Haven’t seen an option for that which is why I still have DTV

I told someone a year ago....people will be back with the cable providers in no time. You will end up spending more, for less content. Cable will raise their prices for internet only customers soon too.

Cable will move to a model that is more user friendly and more choice of channels though

Cable has the same issues, so fail to understand this take.

Direct Tv stream is only streaming service with Bally Sports. I use Vidgo streaming. As of now its $55 a month. It doesnt have CBS or NBC.

2 things
1)cable controls the internet and pricing for it.
2)cable has a lot more channels and partnerships than just a few and costs a lot less per deal because of the viewership and area directed marketing capabilities, where they negotiate regionally, not nationally

Cancelling YoutubeTV this morning and trying out the free trial of FuboTV. In terms of channel line up it’s nearly identical to YT. Sucks because I thought YouTubeTV was head and shoulders above the other streaming options. I hated the HuluLive app.

This is a bummer. But only because they sprung it on a Saturday when all i wanted to do when i got home just now is watch second half of Independence bowl and now i have to spend all of 10 minutes canceling youtubetv and hooking up a free trilal of hulu or sling

Not a big deal. This is the marketplace, baby. Weve got options now. Thank god. Unlike the bitter clinger ddinosaur slaves of cable

Okay. Check the time stamp on my last post. And then check the timestamp on this one.

Thats how long it took me to cancel youtubetv and start a free hulu trial. And that time includes finding my wallet, and one trip to fridge for a beer. Suck it cable, dorks

Its raining in the Independence bowl. Mud bowl, sons. Lets go!


Edit: Also. When registering for hulu trial, it asked my for my gender and there were only two options. Unlike with youtube/google. So off to good start

The last time I went to a walk-in clinic there were 7 options for gender one of which was fill in the blank. Seems like the fill in the blank would cover everything. What's the point of the other six options?

If they didnt have the “fill in the blank” option, they’d be accused of limiting gender to only 6 options. When 9 more were invented in time its taking me to type this

Aside from being a clear sign of a collapsing decayed rotting society, I think it’s probably a CYA and mob pandering move.

This afternoon I couldn't get ESPN, but about 5:00 I tried again and watched several games on TouTube ESPN.

I canceled YouTubetv but still have access until January something

I checked, and all espns are still gone on mine

I’m not an espn fan, or a YouTube fan, so this war between some of the most vile commies on earth is awesome.

The first question it asks when you cancel YouTube is if you did so due to removal of espn Disney blah blah

I clicked ‘Skip’

Sounds like theyve reached an agreement and the channels will return.

I might of canceled too early. But someones got to do the heavy lifting. You’re welcome
