SlingTV or YouTube TV?
 

I'm tired of getting screwed over by cable and satellite companies, so I'm looking for cheaper options to watch the Royals this year.

Last year I had SlingTV. I enjoyed that, except for that it's always about 30 seconds behind live TV and tends to lag and crash once in a while.

I'm looking into YouTube TV. Does anybody have any experience using this to watch the Royals? Their channel lineup says they have "Fox Sports," but I'm not sure if that specifically includes FSKC (I live about 3 hours from KC). I also noticed they have DVR, which is a feature SlingTV did not have last I checked.

I'm also wondering if YouTube TV is actually live, or if it's delayed like Sling. It was frustrating because people would text me about a play 30 seconds before it happened on my screen. I eventually had to tell all my friends not to text me about live action cause I was always behind.

I use my Bros HuluTV it's pretty dope

You may get the Cards feed....

you tube tv as in free dvr to record stuff.

Yeah, that's what I'm wondering. I'm in Springfield, so that's the primary Fox Sports channel here. I know SlingTV has both the Royals and Cardinals stations.

It live so you wont lag too behind.

I wasn't even aware that that was a thing. I'm looking at their channel lineup and it says they have "Fox Sports" and "Fox Sports Plus." I wonder if that means KC and STL games would both be available.

It gives you the channels relevant to your location. If you get Royals games on local cable in Springfield, then you'll likely get it on Youtube TV.

I've had both, and I think Youtube TV blows Sling out of the water.

I just canceled Sling TV today because I just don't watch TV all that much.

But Youtube TV doesn't carry NFLN?

Why specifically do you think it blows Sling out of the water?

No NFLN. Just about everything else though...

ESPN
ESPN2
ESPNU
ESPN News
SEC Network
FS1
FS2
FS KC
FS KC Plus
NBC SN
NBA TV
MLB Network
BTN
CBS Sports Network
Golf Channel
Olympic Channel
Tennis Channel

But no NFLN.

I just did the 7-day free trial for YouTube TV and it does have the Royals games on the upcoming schedule for Fox Sports. That's encouraging.

The navigation. The previews. The unlimited DVR. The channel selection. The video quality. The performance reliability. All was better than Sling TV.

YouTube TV is incredible. Cannot recommend highly enough.

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