Youtube TV

I love Yiutubetv but ease of use vs other options it’s not as good IMO

I don’t know how it could be easier. I only watch live sports, so when I open the app, it knows to show all the sports

Thinking of older couples-

Price and picture resolution are terrible.

Xfinity. It's expensive but it got me everything.

I agree for someone that age. I love YTTV but having ESPN+ on it's own app sucks

Very often Xfinity is cheaper than YTTV..

How does the DVR work with ESPN+ games in Hulu+Live?

I have YoutubeTV and ESPN plus, but I can see how Hulu with live TV plus ESPN plus might

This is one of the big reasons I like it. I can stay in Hulu and get all of the

You can access your Hulu from Disney+ but it doesn't have any of the live stuff.

Good point. I’ve helped my wife’s grandparents, who are in their upper 80s, get

For simplicity you can’t beat good old cable or Dish. No streaming devices, apps

Have you ever subscribed to YouTubeTV?

IdahoCoug

Jul 19, 3:33pm

I have had it for a few years now. I love it.

And your overall experience and simplicity with cable/dish/Directv was better?

IdahoCoug

FUBO seems to have to most sports

Jul 19, 5:05pm

But no TBS or TNT if NBA or March Madness matters to you.

IdahoCoug

I'm hoping to care about March Madness this year, and hopefully more than 1 day.
