What do you run it on? We've got Fire TV and I know that you can't use it.

Mine runs on Xbox, our iPhones and Macbooks too.

I may look into Youtube TV then. Hadn't considered it before, but some of those channels are things I'd watch, if nothing else for the Royals games.

Let me know what you think Thurman.

I have a Mac Mini connected to my TV. Also run it on iPad, Android, Windows.

There's workarounds for watching it on Fire TV.

Honestly - don't know anything about You Tube TV but we are on on Son's Sling account and it does just fine. Unfortunately, you have to watch everything "live" - but other than that, it's great!

Also... you can share a Youtube TV subscription with 5 other people in your "Family." Just type in someone's email address(tied to a Youtube account) in your "Family" settings and they get access too, with their own separate DVR. Share the costs with your "Family..."

You can watch the games live on your phone/tablet/laptop as well. And you have an unlimited DVR.

Okay, so I'm testing out YouTube TV with the free trial now. I downloaded it on my Roku. I called a buddy and had him turn to the same channel I was watching. It was about 20 seconds behind him.

Then I tried watching it on my computer and it was about 10 seconds behind him and 10 seconds ahead of my Roku.

Any thoughts on this? Is my internet just not fast enough? Is my Roku not fancy enough? I just have the basic cheap one, I think.

Streaming cable is gonna have a delay, mang. Heck, Uverse had one too when I had it.

Seems like in 2018 they should have figured out a way to get things broadcast in real time.

It looks like the current workaround is using the Silk web browser along with a mouse.

You conveniently left off the price. :)

It's kind of the nature of streaming. It will likely never be completely live, though as bandwidth gets higher and higher, it should theoretically get a little closer than it is now.

Sling TV was trash for me. Constantly buffering. I will gladly pay extra for YouTube TV
