I know this is a mega thread but there's too many pages and it's pretty much information overload for me so I'll post my question here... been thinking about cutting the cord, and I trust this places opinion more than any where else on the internet so please help me
at my house, we watch:
SPORTS (I'd have to be able to watch this live)
The Walking Dead (also would like to be able to watch this live)
HGTV
The NFL Network
Standard kids TV (paw patrol, etc)
Lifetime
CSI and those types of shows
Also, I would need a good speed for my internet because of console (XBOX 1) games like battlefield, GTA, Madden, etc
There are so many options, I don't know where to start, so if someone could recommend a setup and let me know the pros and cons of it I'd like to do some more research
TIA

I'm just starting the cord cutting adventure myself.
I started by looking at the streaming services to determine what fit my viewing needs. Review the channel lineups and features of DTVNow, PSVue, and Sling. See if those features and channels appeal to you, and fit your viewing arrangements (devices, DVR, etc.). Consider utilizing the free trial of each.
Another consideration is local OTA programming. Antenna required and channels available to you.
And of course Kodi. If you plan to use it, what device will it be on. This rabbit hole can go pretty deep depending on how you want to utilize it.
I personally am set on PSVue and Kodi on a FireTV, and local programming through an antenna and Tablo.
