    I'm going into a month now with yttv and couldn't be happier. Saving an average of $80 from a cable bill that was over $250 /month. Not being able to delete single episodes and not getting MASN is kinda a bummer, though . I would gladly trade Monumental sports? For MASN in the DMV area. Not sure why monumental sports networks are even on yttv.

    I have both cable and most streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, Disney etc. I also have just about every movie channel with my cable service as well. I have been exploring the different live streaming services to determine if cutting cable makes sense.
    So let’s assume I picked one of the better live streaming services and added all of the movie channels via streaming I now only get with cable. Let’s also assume that price was close to the same. One question that I have trouble finding the answer to is whether picture quality for live TV would be as good with the streaming services as it is with cable. I always thought it would be better, but that’s based on watching 4K movies and shows on, say, Netflix or Amazon Prime. But I’m less certain whether the picture quality (my primary concern) would be equal to or better for, say, a regional sports network like SNY? My main viewing is on an 85 inch 4K TV. Thoughts?

    • @MichaelSaves
      @MichaelSaves  2 месяца назад +2

      It’s going to be similar. But keep in mind most games are not in 4K on cable, satellite or a live TV service. I have a recent video that goes into more detail. ruclips.net/video/U23gssQeYWU/видео.htmlsi=VwcqXjxNhqW-kMgN

I called Directv to get it dialed back to the satellite. They wanted me to pay for the service. I told them I had been a customer that had paid for their premium service for 24 years. She said no. I told her the dish was useless without being pointed. I reminded her of all the streaming services and to cancel. I get please comeback letters almost daily.

    My switch between Cable Tv Triple Play providers in 2024 was such traumatic experience--forget all the hardware issues, months and months of ridiculous screwed up billing that took me 8 months to resolve-- current bill still not current. Overlapping Bills all year were frighteningly wrong with no viable way to resolve them!

    I was considering getting Sling TV as I'm close to a major metro area, You say that you have Sling, which is supposed to include NBC yet you also get Peacock TV! Don't they offer the same content? I wanted to be able to get most of the Dick Wolf series such as the Chicago shows and the Law and Oder shows along with possible others. I also want to receive Fox for it's news shows and news 12 for local weather/news. Would Sling fulfill that request? I have a PC connected to the TV which allows me to watch RUclips regular that only has news clips from various Fox news shows. Fox Business has some good programs if available.but not essential if not.

      Do you watch all 8 at the same time? All the services will let you download the app on all your devices. The restrictions are related to streams in use at the same time. That said, DIRECTV STREAM and Fubo have generous streams policies. With RUclips TV and Hulu Live, you can pay more for unlimited in-home streams. Definitely avoid Sling TV in your case.
