Who still has TV service?

[BobbyFK]

I ditched mine a few years ago. Basically just using Hulu, Netflix and Amazon Prime. I recently signed up for Jetstream TV. Loving that for live sports. Getting redzone and all the NFL games. It's awesome. It is definitely a better deal then what I was paying for CenturyLink (upwards of $60 a month)

Only paying $199 for 1 year of Jetstream for 2 different TV's. I get more channels than I can ever watch in a lifetime but of course there are some downsides. mostly channels buffering due to the Internet connection or some channels not working at times. Also a slight delay when watching sports.

There can't be many who still have "cable TV". Maybe some of the "old guys".
Streaming TV is the way to go.

Added Hulu tv service for football season

interesting. How high of an upgrade on Internet connection do you need to stop the buffering?

 

[DarkRaver Camper]

Ha, I have Comcast. It's about $200 with internet. I know.......

 

[Mr KLC]

Sling, Hulu/ESPN+/Disney Bundle, Netflix, Paramount+, Peacock, and the old TV antenna

That is a good question. It might just have something to do with their feed as well and not so much my connection because everything else works great (Hulu, Netflix etc..)

Comcast is the worst! I used to have them when I lived in New Jersey and the price kept getting higher and higher

TV antenna is a great option for more local channels that you might not be able to get with those services. Local news is definitely a good one as most of these services don't offer many local channels

DirectTV stream is cool (formerly AT&T Now). With SlingTV on my living room TV connected to a soundbar the lips didn't match always and drove me crazy.

The problem is they buffer too much if it’s not a legit USA company it starts off good or eventually deteriorates or shuts down.

Besides the occasional buffering thankfully I haven’t ran into any major issues yet

Yeah that would drive me crazy too. Even when I’m watching some YouTube videos or something and it doesn’t match up it bugs me

Cable and streaming here, I did the cord cutting thing a couple years ago and lasted about a week

what happened that made you switch back to cable?

 

[Oddsmaker]

The streaming services are on a delay also, They’re OK but they’re not the real deal

 

[carolinakid]

i love the pluto network here too

Lack of local channels, ease of use, the wife bitching she can't get the channels she wanted to watch, and 30 year old habits are hard to break. I use Comcast and get 200+ channels on cable plus the ability to stream what I want through their service is included.

have iptv but can't rely on it, even with download speeds over 400 it's still choppy at times and can be very frustrating also no reason subscribe more than 3 months as those sites go out of business frequently
