It will be an add-on package for YouTube TV, and a standalone option for YouTube Primetime Channels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) I really wish that you could just subscribe to one team like they let you do with the MLB TV app. Edited December 23, 2022 by MrEpsYtown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I have been evaluating the streaming services and for my family I like the HULU, ESPN+, DISNEY+ for $70. Only problem is I just paid for DISNEY+ on DEC2 for a year and I dont think I can be refunded that even prorated. 1 minute ago, MrEpsYtown said: I really wish that you could just subscribe to one team like they let you do with the MLB TV app. Nothing says they wont but nothing says it will save lots of money either if they do. People wanting to watch their team is probably 90% of that package. THey need to make money on their $2Bil/year investment. You will be paying if you want it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My DirecTV bill will drop since there'll be no more Sunday Ticket. However I will have to subscribe to YouTube to see the Bills games.

Joe Ferguson forever Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 We have been streaming tV for about 6 years now. Too far off the road to get cable. So I've looked into options carefully for TV and internet. The best deal with the best service I've found for internet is Verizon 5G wifi. $25/month for 50mbs and it's reliable. add that to $65 for youtube TV and Its much less than most people pay for cable with similar features.

FilthyBeast Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I'm not going to dump DTV right away, but what sucks is that I've received sunday ticket free for at least the last 10 years either by playing the annual 'threaten to cancel service' game or in recent years being offered it as a loyalty gift without having to call and haggle. I've actually had pretty good experience with their customer service that a lot of people say is horrible. Going forward I'm sure Youtube will offer some form of new user discount and promotion for having sunday ticket in 2023, but beyond that probably going to be back to paying $400 a year for it like the old days which is the bigger issue unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notwoz Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I started the YouTube TV five-day free trial today. So far, I'm not that impressed. A lot of channels that I don't care about ... or care for. And the basic package doesn't scratch all my itches: 4K TV costs an extra $10.99 a month, movie channels are extra, too. And that's the case with my DirecTV subscription as well as most cable packages. But as far as being able to get Sunday Ticket, the devil is in the details: Depending on whether I can get Sunday Ticket without being forced to pay the $64.99 monthly fee for YTTV, I might just switch from DTV to the DTV streaming service.

Malazan Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I've never known anyone who had DTV who didn't have it for Sunday Ticket. If your business model is a captive audience then you better keep them captive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaDigital Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I live in florida. Lightning storms have killed 12 main recievers of mine, and fried two tvs.. service wont with with hdmi surge protectors in place. It took them 4 YEARS to figure out what was causing the issue. That being said, they USED TO BE great! Now? they're gone. Cancelling it as soon as the season ends. Cant WAIT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 DTV and Sunday Ticket subscriber here for about 20 years. I am switching. The only reason I have DTV is for Sunday Ticket. I will do whatever maximizes my value for having Sunday Ticket. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
first_and_ten Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 On 12/22/2022 at 4:41 PM, Xwnyer said: I was really hoping that current DTV sat subs would be able to still get NFLST via Sat feed however announcements today appear to make it exclusive offering from YTTV. If you are a current DTV subscriber will you continue? For me it looks like a very easy decision to walk away. I moved in middle of October and kept the sat subscription so I could continue to access NFLST via the ST App. My HOA provides spectrum Internet and cable as part of our base fees so I was in No hurry to install dish on new home since NFLST a is the main reason I went to DTV in 1996. I personally hate this decision since I a think the directv hardware is great, fast switching, whole home DVR, PIP and many other features that do not exist in any of these streaming services that I am aware of. wondering about others will you stay or will you go? Direct TV offers little for the money I pay. I was getting the package for free every year, so I stayed. So, as you said, it's an easy decision to walk away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCofNC Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Idiots should have allowed Sling subscribers to get ST and they would have been filthy rich from it. Now they can have their cake and get the middle finger to stir their cold coffee with. YouTube stock holders must be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTV streaming is much more expensive than youtube with fewer channels. If you believe reviews, it's rated kinda low 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jethro_tull Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 The key will be how much the a la' carte sunday ticket add on costs vs. total cost YTTV and the sunday ticket included. This will determine what the new main TV source will be- DTV, YTTV or Digital Cable. Interested to hear any info on pricing as this thread continues.

I'm not tech savvy and wondering which streaming device is best for my needs. Looking for some advice. Basically I watch sports. Love the NBA and NFL network channels, along with watching basketball on TNT and Football anywhere. Like the golf network and NHL network too. I'm not in Buffalo so I do like my local network channels for news and Laker games. If I ditch DTV will I lose my ability to watch these channels? They have all of that. https://tv.youtube.com/welcome/?gclid=Cj0KCQiA45qdBhD-ARIsAOHbVdHGZYXdM-RfLowv-an3b6LFlVMahtYeVRVm4x8iFP94hBTRFl7hsn0aAn8uEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds#panel-0 Only channels I watch that are missing are NHL and A&E. I just started free trial yesterday. Not bad at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I’m in the minority of ppl who have a kid in college and used had them sign up for the student discount ~ 110 for STMax. It’s a good service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locomark Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Yes. But I also live in a neighborhood where streaming at certain times gets slow because everyone already streams. So for some of you be careful what you wish for because your cost to upgrade your bandwidth will not be cheap either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
