Buddy has fubo and gets more sports than I do. I'm on YouTube TV and they just raised the price again, but if you try to cancel they'll give you 10 off for 6 months. I like the ytv interface and it's been solid for the family to use.

I have Fubo.
Didn't really shop YT.
Fubo is pretty good on sports but for some reason, they randomly change the local channels about every month.
Last week I had the local Montana affiliates, this week it's Seattle, then it will be Boise.
Kind of aggravating...I haven't called them to see if it's based on my internet provider but that's about the only criticism.
$95/mo.

That sounds aggravating. So to be clear you have to search for your local channels to get local new every so often?

i've had both, fubo 2020-2022, yt tv 2023-present, jumped over because of NFL sunday ticket. there is not much difference between them unless you really like soccer, which seems to be the entire point of fubo. I like that yt tv has big 10 network so my youth wrestling sons can watch college wrestling, but that might have been available on fubo too, they weren't wrestling back then.

We only watch college FB for sports. But find the on occasion NFL and MLB game we can watch.

Never had an NCAA FB game we wanted to watch not on YT. We’ve been using it for 5 years and happy with it, local channels for news, and material for kiddos.

I had that problem too on Fubo. I logged into my account online and set my "home network area" and it fixed it. No clue why your home network isn't automatically set to your billing zip but it sure wasn't.

Yes, it they're even available.
It's not so bad that I have spent real time looking.
I guess if I cared more, I would look into it.

Youtube TV is going up yet again and for as much tv as i DONT watch it’s far exceeded its worth to me.

I think we are switching to Sling TV as soon as i get around to doing it.

Then once that outpaces its value as it surely will we will find the best antenna we can and ditch it all.

Internet being $85/month here coupled with YT TV now reaching $90/month is just crazy to have the luxury of sitting on your butt watching tv.

Quite a bit for tv, not much compared to wings, nachos, and beer at a bar for 17 sundays. Sunday ticket is around 300 for the year, and yt TV is like 85 a month. I live right on the edge of the home viewing area for my team, thankfully things worked out this year and I caught all their games without needing Sunday ticket

This may be irrelevant, but it seems Fubo has blocked my IP address or something. After 3-4 free trials with different email addresses to watch various games, I am now no longer able to sign up for a new account with any of my emails used in the past, any of my wife's emails never associated with Fubo, or any of our credit or debit cards.

If you're between Fubo and YouTube, DirecTV Stream might be worth a look too.
