If you've tested multiple live TV streaming services, add your rankings in the comments section It may help someone who is new to cutting the cord! Comment from : Michael Saves

People tend to focus on the negative more than the positive As for features, all should be known before the trial is over I can only speak to one of these services as of this date and that is SLING I'm on the second or third week of my first month trial and will say the application is slow, cumbersome to use, not friendly, but it does work Comment from : f5fstop

I do Not like this streaming thing, fuzzy pics, plus I’m Not a Movie person…thumb down* Comment from : Northern Dame

I'm using Sling Blue and am satisfied with the lineup, but of course it would be more convenient to have locals included Living in Denver I can bring in the locals I need with some cheap antennas I already had (for those times when cable goes out) Comment from : D J Hinton

I have you tube tv and recently got Fubo tv Got Fubo because they carry Bally Sports which I use to watch my State basketball and baseball games I think I still would rank You tube tv number 1 and Fubo second Comment from : Stevesvideoport

FUBOTV IS TRASH Comment from : Shay Micah

Considering changing from Youtube due to price increase but found it is hard to get national news broadcasts Comment from : Nancy Schaefer

youtube tvhaven't found anything better yet Comment from : dryvur

I appreciate your thoughtful videos My family cut the cord in 2014 and haven't looked back to cable We have tried all of the live streaming services and our rankings are based mainly on features and the overall interface experience We used to emphasize price but since the TV Networks keep raising the prices on the providers price has become less important We don't like the higher prices; we don't feel any of the actors or commentators are worth nearly as much as they are being paid It isn't the streaming company's fault totally, one of these days something is going to happen to correct this inflated mess the networks have created Overall we are still saving about $125/month cutting the cord The rankings are as follows: brbr1 FuboTV - love the features, has a premium feel and carries the majority of the channels we want Love the multi-screens and no real restrictions Draw back we see is the 1,000 hours for the DVR br2 YouTube TV - we like the channel lineup, the premium feel and the features We like the DVR features and the unlimited timing Until recently the service was missing the ability to view multi-channels and the service didn't offer as much sports programming as Fubo TV Also the cost to have more than 3 screens and to have 4K included is too expensive br3 Hulu + Llive TV - we really liked the Disney Bundle being included in the package and to have unlimited DVR But the interface experience is not very user friendly and how to navigate the site is not well thought out br4 DirecTV Stream - we really liked the service since it feels like a cable system and the channel lineup is very good But the inability to really reorganize the channels in the guide and the price made us change service Their unlimited screens is not a true unlimited package, ex: Fox Networks (FoxNews, FoxBusiness, local FOXetc) is limited to only 3 streams br5 Sling - Sling does offer most of the popular channels But for us Sling doesn't have enough DVR space, too few multiscreens and the cost of both Orange & Blue is not a good value compared to other services which offer locals and more channels overall Comment from : Ducmark

She's alright with me Comment from : Michael Drakulich

Neat Comment from : Michael Drakulich

We use DirectTV Stream and High Speed Comcast is my internet Hi from Michigan 🚂 Comment from : trainroomgary

Just cancelled Fubo They claimed they sent me an email advising of a $5 increase in service, and they added Regional Sports at $1399 I was told they cannot remove regional sports What??? Asked for a full refund and await the refund This is nothing short of thievery and you should not use this service Comment from : Eric Lawson

YouTube TV is the best of all/ Comment from : Itanium153

Unfortunately tyrannical communist YouTube tv is best JD likely false reviews for paying providers Comment from : Dont-buy DELL

So if you hate sports and sitcoms and only like conspiracy theories, documentaries, suspense and movies like game of thrones, which one should I sign into first? Comment from : Angel Z

After fubo upgraded its live guide, I tried its free trial, I like it much better than Youtube tv, but br Fubo is still to expensive Comment from : Z man

I'm too poor & cheap to pay for TV I pretty much enjoy old sitcoms and can watch them on Roku Even still using my roof top antennae, I can get several channels that are even on Roku & come in crystal clear But most the time I just watch YouTube Comment from : pinkfreud62

I've had Hulu TV now for over a year The constant problem where the picture doesn't match the sound is very annoying Hulu told me it's my internet speed 100 Mbps Ya right I'm about to dump them brNot sure where yet Leaning towards YouTube TV 🤔 Comment from : socalifone

I still only use Pluto TV, TUBI, and now Netflix! Comment from : Cindy Dott

If youtube tv has regional sports I would switch But at the moment i like my regional sports and have no problem with my directv stream Comment from : Saul Munoz

I have had Direct TV for over 20 yrs I love the programming but not the price I have Choice plus which is about $80 a month plus taxes and maint fees plus equipment fees plus this fee that fee now I'm paying $160 a mth and that's without any premium ch Fubu is right up my alley but, like other people I too like TNT, and TBS I have an outside antenna so I'm thinking of combining Fubo with either sling or youtube, that would still be a lot cheaper than what I'm paying now And I'll still have my MLB NFL and golf plus NESN If anyone out there has a better pkg idea I would love to hear it Comment from : C Jay West

I love directv stream for ease of use I'm angry at all the price increases Ironically that's why I left Directv satellite Now they are raising prices at the same as Youtube TV price so might as well keep them Comment from : Sarai Bucciarelli

Fubo sucks, I dropped them quickly Comment from : Wm Tarrant

Sucks when you have dad that doesn’t know how to operate a live streaming app I actually wish i could just stick to YT TV Comment from : Trev V

I have YouTube TV, and the only issue that I have with it is “Live TV” isn’t really “Live” It’s like a minute or so behind I can be watching a sporting event and get an alert on my phone about the game that I am watching The alert will say it’s halftime, but the game still has :30 seconds or so remaining before halftime Comment from : Dwayne Parker

So much to what the award is worth More worthlessbrbrThe identity of the company that funded the sale of JD Power and Associates to the XIO Group is unclear, according to reports JD Power is a market research firm that conducts surveys of customer satisfaction and product quality The most heavily promoted JD Power ratings are those conferred in the automotive industrybrbrThe mysterious XIO Group is based in Hong Kong Xie Zhikun, a Beijing tycoon, took credit for funding the deal that enabled XIO to buy the former family business, but representatives from XIO denied the claimbrbrThe XIO Group purchased JD Power in 2016, when many cash-rich Chinese firms were buying foreign companies According to the reports, since the purchase XIO has put the JD Power into "very high" debt as judged by the risk management firm Moody's Analytics Moody's has also downgraded the company's credit ratingbrbrThe Power family sold the company to McGraw Hill in 2005 and now collaborate on investments and philanthropy through a family office Comment from : J Michael

Why do we have to pay for service that shows commercials BS Comment from : James Kehn

I've only tried YTTV and Fubo and after doing so, I have reverted back to Comcast brYTTV Issues:br1) Lots of audio sync issues which leads to my second issuebr2) Tech support is awfulbr3) $2000 per month for the 4k package is absolutely ridiculousbr4) Often times during live sports I encountered numerous episodes of poor resolutionbrbrFubo Issues:br1) Everything is broadcast in 720pbr2) Pricingbr3) lack of Turner networks was an issue for me since I do watch a lot of the Men's college basketball tournamentbrbrOverall I would likely give a slight edge to Fubo primarily because their tech support far exceeds that of YtTV Comment from : Joe G

I've found all the services to have needlessly clunky interfaces in one way or another, but YTTV has been by far the most reliable while having the overall best channel lineup Comment from : Clint Matthews

Since I signed up for YouTube TV, I have tried other TV streaming services to see if I can find anything better I’ve tried fubo, Hulu, directv, and xfinity stream In every case I have come back to YouTube TV, not because it’s the best thing since sliced bread, but because don’t have to make too many compromises YouTube TV is buggy and it needs improvements but it has all the channels that I’m interested in Hulu TV+ is a close second Comment from : Farzin Eskandaripour

My rankings are like this: 1-Hulu Live TV, 2-Fubo, 3-SlingTV, 4-YouTube TV Philo is a good service at a really nice price, but sine there is no ESPN or any other sports channels, it is not a viable solution during Football season Comment from : Kurt Hanlin

I will be sold if Youtube TV can get a regional sports network Fubotv just signed a deal with Sinclair, so I am sticking with them They also have AT&T SportsNet Pittsburgh, where I have access to Pittsburgh penguins, and now I can watch Cleveland Cavaliers and Cleveland GuardiansFubotv is still a win for forenow! Fubotv just has more to offer for me! NFL Sunday Ticket is great as I am Packers fan and live in Ohio and just get as standalone on YouTube Comment from : Justin Brown

The only reason I’m considering Fubo is because they have ATT Sportsnet which will allow me to watch the Rockets and Astros Comment from : Bryan Mitchell

All I want is Disney, Cartoon Network, Nick for my daughter And sports for me and nfl redzone/ network brLiterally all I want! Comment from : Mike Castro

We seen changes, this year 2022 YouTube premium made a move to eliminate some rivals once and for all, due to their big price hike they made us cancel permanently Netflix, Hulu and Disney in a blink of an eye, such a carnivore move! as for the rest Apple, Hbo and peacock don’t count to us yet We were able to save Spotify premium and Discovery plus along for the ride but we fear discovery plus might loose its way once the merge is completed We crown Amazon prime best for originals and movies (great job!) and YouTube premium for making such a move knowing the benefits YouTube premium and Amazon prime provide to us Can’t wait to 2023 … Comment from : EspacioJorge

I travel with a motorcycle and tent full time so don't care about local channels All I want is to watch all the Colts football games and history Channels Oak Island, Travel channel would be nice but not a big deal What do you think would be the cheapest way to go? I am thinking Sling If I got Orange & Blue would that work for me? Comment from : Me And My Royal Enfield

Having tried sling HULU + live & Fubo, have to say I’m pretty impressed with Fubo Not tried You Tube tv as yet Comment from : Ian Hope

YouTube tv is too expensive It’s as much as cable Comment from : Brandi

One reason for the discrepency between your recent poll and the JD Power poll could be that many of the responders to your poll are or were YOUTUBE TV subscribers Which is fine and no way makes your poll weaker--just maybe a little different I think the overall questions between your poll and JD's were similar enough (even considering that JD's poll ranked other service types) I can't prove this obviously but it's plausible I would say, no? You are fair and always have been BUT you can't control if many of your views and subscribers are YOUTUBE TV satisfied customers I know that I am and I use your videos to enhance my experience and learn more Surely others do the same JD Power just very likely sampled a more diversified group since theres no previous JD POWER content regarding YOUTUBE TV simliar to what you've produced Hope I made sense I'm NOT knocking your videos or poll I like you and your content That's why I am pondering this question Take care and thank you for all the great content ) Comment from : Alex Lindsey

We chose FuboTV because of its clean DVR capability of only recording new episodes as compared to YTTV which mixes in on demand content with your recordings However, our experience with fuboTV has not been good I've used it on multiple devices and have extremely high bandwidth with fiber to my home But around 6:00 pm each evening we begin to get buffering that can continue for quite some time Trying any other app does not have this problem so it's isolated to FuboTV Comment from : Don Draper

TJ and Amy 🤣😂🤣 Comment from : lowe442

If anyone could chime in, I'd appreciate it I currently pay $203/month with Xfinity I have internet, TV and home phone through them I really only care about the internet plan, but my parents and a few family members do watch soccer, specifically Mexican soccer I'd like get rid of the TV service and see if we can find a cheaper streaming solution that has soccer The only providers in my area are Comcast and AT&T We switched from AT&T 4 years ago because the internet was too slow with them (18 Mbps) Comment from : Javier Flores

Love DiecTV Stream Probably one of the higher costing ones, but the navigation and on demand is A1!!! Comment from : MVP Heat

JD Power is Nuts YouTube TV and Hulu are the Best Comment from : Robin Petrillo

I've had Sling tv for a long time and I have been very happyuntil recently I moved from NYC to CT and went from having local channel like Fox , Abc and Nbc to now only having Nbc It sucks when wanting to watch Football on Sunday Comment from : Godzilla81

YouTube TV so expensive Comment from : A Nicole

do you take into consideration Spanish add ons and pricing? Comment from : Stephanie Rosales

Hulu SucksToo much buffering! Done with them! Comment from : Gary Hyett

Hi Michael, thank you for the streaming service review I am currently in my 2 week free trial with you tube tv Can you tell me if you tube tv can be navigated on the tv screen or is it only navigated through app on phone or tablet? I find it hard to get use to working from my phone/tablet from the current service with cable on screen/through cable remote control I do understand part of my frustration is from being accustomed to 20+ years with cable on screen interface Thank you in advance for your reply Comment from : joe crozier

So tired of slings constant political liberal ads At least show 1 Republican ad, wow, thei bais Comment from : James Ferguson

Cloudcast is shit Buffering and stuttering Comment from : Steve858

I appreciate your work! Do you know if Directv Stream gives provider access to independent channel apps like Directv Satellite does? Comment from : Jason D

How about RV'ers ! I went from YT TV to Fubo because I liked the recorded library user interface I sometimes go on camping trips, and Direct TV was a no brainer on watching TV with a little dish pointing This trip was my first without DirectTV Well I have a 3-6 mb download speed with my Wifi in the RV and Fubo had many annoying freezes, pauses, low resolution video I still had my YT TV plan so i thought I'd compare YouTube TV was flawless in video stream, and quality was much better than Fubo That tells me that if you're in an area were signal is not too great, YouTube TV hands down will give you a moving picture Just a first time observation I was liking Fubo too Hope now that YouTube upgrades their recordings user interface Comment from : Drone Eyes

YouTube voice sync problems are massive Comment from : FarnzworthIII

FuboTv sucks at customer satisfaction Fubo must have made that nonsense up But they have good sports stuff and TV Comment from : I dont know

Honestly peoples wants/needs are so different that there is no wrong way to rank them For me it’s:br1 Sling (price and must have channels are my #1 factor) Sling blue has everything I’d normally watch br2 Hulu live (Hulu has mostly anything you’d probably wanna watch but also the bundle makes sense especially if you were buying d+ & espn+ separate br3 YouTube tv (ok layout but expensive with no standout perks like bundled apps)br4 Dtv stream (this is my favorite layout but the price is ridiculous, loved it but had to cancel)br5 Fubo (no tnt or tbs so I have never tried) Comment from : JOSH A Cox

Aren’t JD power awards given to the highest bidder… Comment from : Mako Golf

I just started a 30 day trial of FUBO through Best Buy (came as a "gift") to evaluate it over YoutubeTV, I did this as I need MSG to watch the Buffalo Sabres I have to say I think I like FUBO better, it has only ben a couple days but the interface is better, I like the multi-view on football days, it just feels more polished Losing CNN was a gift (fake news) and the other content fits my needs What a pleasant surprise FUBO has been ! Comment from : David Meyer

My rankings as follows below Everyone has their must have channel list, and FuboTV lacks some must have channels We are seriously looking to switch to DirecTV streambr1 YTTV (stellar DVR at decent price)br2 DirecTV Stream (It's basically a full cable service, very few channels are missing)br3 HULU + Live TV (great VOD service)br4 Sling Comment from : D Jaquith

Yes, however, Youtube TV still has not added History or the Science channels I mean, come on already Those are pretty important channels to some people Comment from : Jesse Godsey

We started with SlingTV when we first dropped cable But we currently use Philo due to pricing and what we watch I do use Sling for a month during March Madness I have several ota dvrs so I don't need to pay for locals Comment from : Maurice Hufnagel

I got slings total package which includes both blue and orange plus which includes sports extra, kids extra, news extra, comedy extra, lifestyle extra, heartland extra, and Hollywood extra I pay a total of $77 The sports is awesome for football RedZone, pac-12, sec network, acc network, and so much more Comment from : LH

Coming from Spectrum old-school cable to DIRECTV stream I’m loving it DIRECTV stream! Comment from : Just a Channel

Can anyone tell me how many seconds the following streaming services are behind the live broadcast? brYouTube TVbrHulu + LIVE TVbrFubo TVbrDIRECTV Stream Comment from : TheWCVB5Fan

HD audio (surround sound) is very important and nobody talks about this! Comment from : mschrad2

‘’Courage taught me no matter how bad a crisis gets any sound investment will eventually pay off" Comment from : Anna Goldman

I’ve tried the rest I’ma stick with Hulu they have more streaming options and more viewing in 4k🫧 Comment from : Kenny Johnson

I had YouTube TV and switched to DirecTV because Youtube kept saying that I lived in Chicago when I live in the South and no matter what I did -- the service said I was outside my service area Thats only half Try talking to Youtube Impossible Find a phone number? None They suck Even the best programming couldn't get me back to that black hole I am no fan boy of DirecTV -- I'm a fanboy of who gets me the most programming and best price -- but I would pay more to talk to a human being Interested in what others have found talking to Youtube? Comment from : Cold Gecko

I have DirecTV Stream only because I need Bally Sports I strongly dislike the cancellation process, and the cost But otherwise I love it I like the idea of Fubo multiview, but the lack of Bally sports is a bummer Comment from : Minny Biker

My issue with Fubo was highly watched NFL and college games has motion issues I have GB speed with a hardwired ATV+ also I loved the multi view they have Comment from : Dave Schott

My personal choice is Hulu Michael it has loads of content old and new Plus the price is nice Comment from : Michael Wyckoff

1-Youtube TV (best overall but don't use anymore because missing a few fav channels I like and price)br2-Fubo (use during mlb season for ATT Sportsnet but is the most expensive of my 6 choices) br3-Sling (use when not baseball season because best bang for my buck)br4-Friendly TV (for the price of 1 month of FUBO $89 you can get 1 year of Friendly with unlimited dvr and 72 hour look back) - I have a yearly subscription (all hallmarks, insp, metv, curiosity, history)br5-Philo (used for a while ok in a pinch but for about $10 more you can get sling)br6-Hulu (never liked it) Comment from : BCKrypto

Didn’t Hulu lose Lifetime TV? I wish Philo was compatible with Samsung Smart TVs I don’t need sports, and I like the clean look of mounted tv no box Comment from : NM1000

Testing several services, Sling TV is best for our family Fubo TV didn’t have basketball This was a deal breaker for my husband YouTube TV does not have the Tennis channel That is a deal breaker for me Sling TV has both We have been customers of Sling TV since it began To be honest, now we have five streaming services I worked return to cable, but the prices are ridiculous Thank you for another great video Have a happy Sunday ❤❤🎉🎉 Comment from : Deva McLean, BA MA ELL TESOL VI

I tried them all brDirecTV Stream had the best picture quality, but lacked NFL Network and RedZone channel Also too $$$ and no android/googleTV app Their box was horrid You had to switch from HDR to SDR manually and rebootbrSlingTV was OK, but most channels were 30 fps and DVR often failed to record a showbrFubo was missing too many channels I watchbrHulu interface I didnt like, and it was just as expensive as YouTubeTVbrYouTubeTV was my choice Had all the channels I watch Red Zone was available Many sports are in 4K Dolby Digital on a lot of channels Never misses a recording Picture quality on my server is just as good as DirecTV Stream brFull disclosure, I get $10/mo off YTTV from T-mobile Comment from : DaveNLR AR

I use YoutubeTV, and yes, it’s price is a bit expensive, but I like the channel lineup I’ve tried Direct TV Stream and Hulu Live, and I wasn’t impressed Comment from : MollyFanton2023

Thanks so much for your great videos I cut the cord two months ago by following your suggestions and I couldn’t be happier! YouTube TV is my favorite streaming service based on their excellent channel lineup including locals I tried Hulu live and Fubo but YouTube TV gave me more of what was important to me I think their live guide could use some improvement (like the ability to skip ahead by days) but it still meets my needs Thanks again for your work! Comment from : Greg Matthews

Fubo doesn't even have the option for HBO I do really like Fubo's user interface though Hulu should take note Comment from : Shin Akuma
