re: Latest opinions on Directv now vs sling vs Vue vs Hulu Live TV

Sure, to be honest if Hulu Live had AMC I would jump on it.

That's the 1 big negative I have on it currently. I really like the menu layout and the whole application is speedy as hell on my Xbox One S. It beats SlingTV on the Xbox One S and is even more fluid and "snappier" than SlingTV/DTVNow/PSVue was on my Amazon Fire TV.

Odds of Hulu adding more channels like the others are doing? If they get AMC Hulu becomes the clear front runner in my opinion.

I guess their only other downside is the Hulu app on the Amazon Fire TV and Roku isn't updated yet. Which is even more weird because on my Android tablet, the hulu app is updated.

Is anyone running DTVN with Chromecast? is it worth it?

I am it works fine with me only issues I've been having is it'll buffer from time to time for like 10-15 secs and DTVN has this 4 hour thing where if you go 4 hours without interacting with the app this message will appear while your watching tv asking if anyone is still there. Which is annoying
because you have to go into app and stop casting then recast to make it go away cuz it stops your programming but other than those two things it's been fine but YMMV.

If you can deal with the two issues I mentioned above it's worth it imo.

Another question - about PS Vue. Installed the app on my Firestick. Flawless download. Opened app. Fine. BUT then it told me that to use the app I must enter my PlayStation code. I don't own a PS and don't want one. I'm guessing I can't use VUE. Thoughts?

You can use Vue on a fire stick. Think you need to register the account online first and get the code from your account.

I think there is a place on the psvue website for registering new devices.

No AMC, NFL Network or MLB Network. Hulu fixes that glaring issue and I'll give it a shot.
