Youtube TV or Hulu?

[Burgermeister]

I pulled the plug on Xfinity and while we have all our apps available on Roku - MAX, P+, etc., we'd like a better live TV package that has local channes. Looks like it's between Youtube TV and Hulu. Anyone opinions? Thanks!

Yes, that is an option, but too much work. I can either get an antenna for each tv and figure out where to mount each antenna, or get a whole home antenna and get the cable routed. Too lazy.

I get it. Not doing antennas. Looking for feedback on Hulu vs. Youtube TV. Thanks.

I like Sling because they have two choices of lineups. I use the one without ESPN, which adds $8 to your monthly bill, and I do not like, as a sports network. I believe I pay $40 per month. I mainly keep it for MSNBC and a few other channels. I'm pretty much done with the TBS/TNT/USA/A&E/Bravo/SyFy/AMC channels that have commercials every 6 minutes that last for 4 minutes, and chop up movies and shows so much it's not worth watching them.

There's also DirecTV Now.

Hulu + Live may be an advantage if you also have Disney+, because you can bundle them (along with the seldom-watched ESPN+) for a lower price.

You-Tube interface is difficult but you can get sunday Ticket there.
Hulu has the better interface

If all you want is TV, go Hulu.

The only "live" tv I watch is NFL.
For the same reason.

Thanks. As it stands now, the nfl package is the differentiator.

Thanks. You watch MSNBC? I would have never guessed.

If you are in a decent location, have you just tried switching to OTA broadcast TV on an antenna like TV used to be? I switched to it in 2016 and have never looked back. I get more, better television for free now (70 channels) than I USED to get for $200/month on Dish or Verizon.

I hope someone comes up with a reasonable cost and quality solution.

It seems like I’ve tried them all yet end up searching YouTube. Once you exhaust Hulu, sling, Disney of the good stuff they’re a waste. I suppose Sling/espn is an okay for the news/ sports live stuff.

I use Roku on one TV and Google/TCL on the other. Several free channels there. Freevee,Tubi,Plex,Crackle. Plus I have a magnavox plug in antenna with about 50 channels. Lots of old movies,westerns and classic tv shows.

Apparently there is a constant battle of licensing for channels amongst all of them. The good news is that you can cancel and change pretty easily if they drop a channel that you like. The NFL Ticket is a massive draw for me, so I am leaning heavily towards YouTube TV. Fucking Google..

I guess I'm lucky. Years ago I completed designing and building my own "Netflix " with thousands of the best motion pictures, documentaries, sports, concerts and sitcoms of all time, and have it all at my finger tips now at the press of a button in FHD, plus BRs, DVDs, and everything else, and since then, Hollywood has slowed to a trickle.

There has been very little worthwhile to come out of Hollywood in a decade. So with OTA, a DVR, and a little streaming on occasion, I have little need to pay anyone for anything, but the amount of good programing available for free on OTA is staggering.
