Need Streaming Advice

[Kaos]

I got Sling last year.  I don't hate it.  BUT.... the one device at a time deal is a killer.

Problem was if I wanted to watch Law & Order and Amy wanted to watch LSU football in another room the service said NOPE!  One device at a time (Orange Plan).  So I just looked at upgrading.  Well...  Upgrading to Blue gives me three devices, but I lose ESPN, ACCN, SECN.  Ok. Orange and Blue, then. WRONG.  Orange is only one device again - so I couldn't watch Auburn (were I ever going to do so) and let her watch LSU in another room if the games were at the same time. 

I need a better option.  I'm asking for ideas, here.

Get two accounts on Sling - one orange and one blue with two different logins. IFFFFF this is a hard requirement for you. Or just get Hulu or Youtube TV.

I use Hulu & don't have any complaints.  I used sling around the 2018 season and regretted every minute of it.  Terrible experience (at least back then).

I have a buddy that swears by YT TV, but I haven't had a reason to make the switch.

Sling is not a hard requirement.  Happy to dislodge. 

I just want her to be able to watch LSU on one tv and me something else on another. 

I have regular Hulu.  Is there some advanced version?  This is what I do not know.

YoutubeTV has been great for me.  Multiple devices/locations and unlimited digital DVR.

Went to Youtube a while back.  Still a bit of a pain in the ass at times to navigate, but less than half of my cable bill makes it worth it.

Same.  Only thing I don't like is I can't wait shitty Cardinals baseball.  But I figured if/when they are even good again, I'll just get a subscription to Ballys.

But, I have it on 4 TVs in the house, Soph has it on her TV in college, and we have 4 iPhones with it, and one iPad.

At you're age, I'm surprised you know how to work the fucking remote.

You get a remote with Youtube TV?

I just had this discussion with my son.
You Tube is est. $60/mo. for first 4 months and $80 thereafter. You're covered with almost every cfb choice imaginable, no Bally for Braves though if that's important.

You don't get Hulu but you do get Paramount which opens up a few other selections.
Any additions will cost more.

So ditch Sling and sign up for YouTube TV?

About the only thing I use Sling for is when BBC has a Law&Order marathon.  I like that background noise.  Occasionally I find a movie or something there, but not often.  Any time a Braves game is on, it's blacked out. 

So let's go from there.  Ditch Sling, keep what I already have or glom (Paramount, Hulu, Max, Peacock), add YouTube TV. 

What about ESPN and Plus?  Keep or ditch?

Keep what you glom.
You're gonna be set with espn.
BBC might be extra.

There isn't much that isn't on YTTV.  I was even watching NFL Network's broadcast of the Niners/Saints game last night.

They also offer easy/cheap add-on channels if you need to customize (usually about +$5/mo)

There will be some ESPN stuff you won't get, so the HULU w/ESPN+ is a luxury add-on.

Yeah he would get BBC America and BBC News. My mistake.

This is the main reason I’ve stuck it out w/ Hulu. No matter how bad we suck, I can’t bring myself to miss an Auburn game, and with that combo package, I don’t have to.

I was in Afghanistan in the 2013 opener against Washington State, fresh off a 14 hr work day & the next day off was 4 days away. I worked 26 hrs without a lick of shuteye. Worth the ensuing misery to cheer ‘em on to victory.

All that said, come on in, K… the water is still fine.

What Wes said. YTTV AND Hulu are both great with this flexibility.

It has been made so. 

I'm currently watching Braves/Phils on TBS.  Has been a while since I watched MLB, but this league seems, at least, to have toned the social justice nonsense down.... and I have always been a Bravos fan.   Thank my grandmother for that.
