I switched back to cable
I might save a few bucks a month streaming but the convenience of cable trumps it
Now that streaming costs just as much it doesn't make sense to have a streaming service over cable. And the #1 reason is for live sports. Streaming is delayed 2 or 3 minutes behind cable. That shite won't cut it during live sports. Until they can get streaming as "live" as cable and not delayed cable will be the superior product.

I’ve had YouTube tv and Hulu live and much, much prefer YouTube tv. It’s the shite
Ok couple things
1. I watch live sports on YouTubeTV while posting on here all the time and don’t have any issues with any kind of delay
2. Even if the cost is the same, which I acknowledge in a lot of cases it is, I’d rather have the streaming service due to the customer service, the lack of a contract (cancel anytime), the lack of equipment required, and the lack of shenanigans with my bill which cause me to have to deal with awful customer service
I’d pay a little more to stream and not deal with the shitastic cable/satellite companies anymore tbh

Sure it does. No contract, no cable boxes, can cancel or update your service online instead of having to call, etc.
And I’ve never had an issue with streaming football games and being way behind. Im sure it’s a tad more delayed, but I sometimes follow game threads on the rant and I’m just as up to date as all the others on there.
