What are some of the cons?

On Android TV, the Hulu app is limited to 30 fps, which is crap for live sports. There is a workarout by using the Chromecast feature on Android TV (Hulu supports 60 fps on Chromecast). Unfortunately, I always got stuttering via that route. It wasn't my ISP since streaming through the ESPN app was always smooth. The 30 fps was a deal breaker, so I dumped them and switched to YouTube.

The streaming on YT is so much better. Streams on Hulu are up to a minute behind live action while YouTube is only ~30 seconds behind. The video quality is also very good and you can manually force your stream to lower bitrate if you need to save data. They also offer unlimited DVR and the interface seems a lot smoother. It's my first year doing OTT streaming, and YouTube is totally worth it.

I used to pay $100+ for Xfinity and I didn't even get ESPNU, ESPNews, FS2, ACCN, CBS Sports, or BTN.
