Compare Streaming TV Services in Your Area

Which TV streaming platform is right for you? Each of the five platforms we list below has at least one to two unique advantages depending on your priorities. Think about (1) how many devices your household uses at one time: (2) whether you want to stream TV when you’re away from home; (3) the number of DVR hours you wish to have available for recording your favorites; and (5) price. The five services we included do not require contracts but you may be offered an incentive to commit to two years. Let’s dive into a comparison among DIRECTV Streaming, Fubo Pro, Hulu +Live TV, Sling Orange + Blue, and YouTube TV.

• 1. Hulu + Live TV has a $76.99/mo. option that includes both Disney+ and ESPN+ for the extra dollar. Both channels are with ads.
• 2. Some streaming services don't require a device to stream. DirecTV stream does require a gateway device that is included. For most streaming platforms you need an internet connection of at least 25 Mbps (higher is better) and you can watch a TV-connected streaming stick, box, Smart TV or gaming console.
