YouTubin for Bears Games

[grendel2000]

Ugh.

I just signed up to get Sunday Ticket and because Hulu has sucked for me. I didn't realize NO HISTORY CHANNEL!!!

WTF

God I hat what this whole "cut the cord" thing has devolved into. I didn't think it could get worse than cable. I was wrong.

Yep. I'd love a service that would just let you set it up a la carte. I have no need for the Disney Channel, Disney Junior, PBS Kids (Disney + very much but not the channel), Nickelodeon (or any of their spinoffs), Telemundo or any other Spanish network, MTV, VH1 and a host of others. Have a flat fee to get everything but if you want to just pick what you want, you just pay for them. It would clearly be a higher cost "per unit" but the total cost could be much less.

I don't love the costs but that's not my main issue: what I HATE is having to search through seven different apps to find which one has the show I want to watch...

The cost difference to me is staggering. DirectTV used to have a Sunday Ticket streaming package for $120. Don't think I can swallow a 300% increase.

[Grizzled]

Supposedly YouTube is offering its NFL package for $100 off if signed up before June 6.

I'd like to cut off Direct TV but wife would bitch, as she is NOT technical proficient. I have DTV ultra package so I guess I need to just get the discounted NFL package. I was thinking to just go Nigerian to get Bears games but I have had free NFL package getting that free when they wanted to keep me spewing all $260 a MONTH for a shitload of channels we never use.

Also I don't know if my bandwith is fast and good enough. I rent a guest house to winter visitors $3000 a month and am booked Nov-May to folks that want to be here every year. They are bandwith hogs though..
So I wm going to see what DTV will offer me if I call to cut them.. I am in the foothills no cable and DSL Century stink is offering 1mp service ! So I have wireless but only 15 mps..BUT they may get it to 50mps.."soon"..

Yelling at clouds here.

Also I rent another home I have here that uses my DTV online home we'll see !! Dam clouds,,

I used Clean Streams to get Chicago channels at $20 a month but It also offers me other cities too..

Is there strong cell signal at your rental house ? Both Verizon and T-mobile offer Internet through cellular for $50 a month. I used the Verizon service for a year and it was very reliable with no data caps, I also used T-mobile a bit but not as extensively. Also you could look at Satellite through starlink which my friend who lives in a valley in Vermont uses and swears by.

It started recording the college games now, I don't know, must've had something wrong or just a glitch for the first couple.

There's been some good and some bad with Youtube tv, I think it's enough bad to try fubo or direct tv's streaming. I suspect they won't be much better, I think my gripe is mostly with not being able to channel surf quite like I used to and I doubt anyone can offer that right now. Anyway, after I check those out, I'll probably just end up going back to youtube, but we'll see.

YES! THIS! Just need some sort of aggregator that's smooth and easy. Maybe a box or stick that will offer multiple screens running different apps that you can switch between but get right back to quick and easy. MLB on my apple tv has a picture in picture function but I haven't quite gotten the hang of it. Maybe they'll figure it out at some point.
