Preparing to retire. Paying over $160 a month for direct. Looking at other options. Wife is interested in YouTube tv, as it has all of the channels she watches for half the price. Are those of you that have YouTube tv satisfied? Picture quality?
Other services you would recommend? TIA.

Youtubetv is great. No issues. Just make sure you have a decent internet package.

For zero dollars I do a lot of streaming on the Roku channel. (You do need a Roku for this)

I have Youtube TV and love it.

I have had it for 3 years and it’s awesome. You can find cheaper options but YTTV interface is the best I have seen. Also the ability to stream in multiple devices is second to none.

YouTubeTV has been great for me.
Many like Hulu as well. I personally hate the Hulu interface and found the service a lot more "choppy" and than YouTubeTV

YTTV for the win.

Dump your movie channels on direct tv new price is only 10 more than YouTube tv which is hot garbage

Can we post streaming services for free PPV sports here?

It all adds back up eventually. They're still making money.
$80 for high speed internet
$10 for Netflix
$10 for Hulu
$10 for Peacock
$10 for Amazon Video
Add in the $10-20 per movie for "Still in theaters, watch it now"

I have YouTube TV. I went from Direct to YTTV as well. Extremely pleased with it.
Once I got over the fact I was supporting Google, I’ve grown to love it.
Only issue I had was not being able to “flip” the channels. There are no channel numbers. But you can set the guide up however you like.

Youtube TV is great. HuluTV with the live TV add on is pretty good too. I don't remember if it has a DVR like YTtv does.

If you're a little tech savvy look into IPTV. I pay around $13 a month. Thousands of channels, Netflix, Hulu, Max, Paramount etc is all included.

The only reason I still keep my Direct TV is for hurricane season. I pay $70/mo, which is the same as Youtube, and if my internet goes down, I still have satellite.

Is that $160 just for the TV service or does that include internet? If it's just for TV, cancel asap, and don't look back.
YouTube TV is the cleanest, and best user interface. $73/month
If you're already paying for Hulu/Disney/ESPN+ then the Hulu Live option is good because you can get it all in one package for $77/month
Sling works but you'll probably need both "Orange", "Blue", and the Sports addon packages which will cost around $65-70/month and doesn't stream local channels.

You must have this with any streaming service. I like Fubo. It's more expensive than YouTube TV but easier to navigate. Plenty of channels and has a add on fee for expanded sports package, it's worth it.

I pay $20/month for SwoopTV. I have every channel ever made, it includes NFL Network, NBA Pass, MLB Pass, NCAAFB Pass, and free PPV events

just dropped almost everything and went to YouTube TV. So far so good. We also have one that has ads for $6.95 a month but I do not know the name. It has most of the crap channels that YouTube does not...the channels my wife watches all of those chick flicks and married at first sight shows and my 84 year old dad watches old TV series and westerns on. We could probably get by without youtube TV altogether except for football season because I watch youtube videos mostly and everyone else in the house watches crap that the producers will almost pay you to watch....

youtubetv is awesome. i got tired of direct and paying over $200 even after being a customer for a decade and went to fiber internet, youtubetv, espn/disney/hulu bundle and netflix for less than i was paying just for Direct. way less.

We have fiber internet to the house but they just installed fiber cable to the street. I think it is X Finity but I am not sure. I don't care if it is $300 a month when it is available we are buying it. Streaming is shite in all instances. We have been doing it for about 6 years and are so fed up with it that I will willingly put up with suck arse cable customer service to stop it.
