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. |

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.

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

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

There's workarounds for watching it on Fire TV.

No, I didn't. I was paying the exact same price to get everything I wanted to see on Sling. Blue and Orange packages together is $35. One or the other was not sufficient for me. And even with both, I still couldn't get the regular NBC channel. Or all Royals games because the Fox Sports channel wasn't the KC based one. No DVR was a huge difference too.
