crap. I'm stuck in a contract.
It will be back on with CFB and the NFL coming up as its the same on Direct TV too. FOX is losing a ton of money and will push it until then and them give in. Happens every time. Not Dish or Direct TV's fault.
Hulu plus Live TV
I left 2 years ago and went with Playstation Vue.
Fox Sports 1 is still available. This is currently just the regional networks, so no impact on Husker football (yet).
seems to happen every year right around the start of the season. We have Dish, so if we have issues I just drive in to my dad's house and watch it on cable.
Me too. First time Hulu subscriber last August. Including BTN. Only $40 dollars per month plus no contract. Initially, I'm worried about streaming thing but as a result, very very happy. No problems at all.
I'm sold on Roku streamer ..... hundreds of channels; lots of free TV.

Yep, streaming is the only way to go. Lot's of options and few obligations. We use YouTubeTV, but my son has the Hulu + and loves it.
They are starting some price creep. I started last year on YTTV at $35/mo. Now they claim they added channels, and are charging $49/mo. Seems like the Hulu live is $45, so I may switch over. Even still, we were paying $135/mo when we dropped cable. And the reliability and quality of streaming, for us, is every bit as good as cable was.
It's exciting to me too. For the first time, the consumer actually has a few options.
I tried YouTubeTV (free trial). Similar to Hulu. Either way ... I picked Hulu for some reason.
Actually I paid $50/mo instead of $40 because Hulu add-on ... unlimited screens and no limit hours on virtual DVR ($10 higher).
Here is the list of what is off of Dish right now. They were blocked by Fox and Dish was willing to keep them up under the current contract during negotiations if you believe what is being said.

Have been using YouTube TV for the past year. I'm a fan.
Can't say it's "cheap" by any stretch. $50 per month, but if you're evaluating it against a traditional cable package, it compares very well. YTTV also has a pretty deep focus on sports-related channels.
Keep in mind - you want fast enough internet service to make it all work. I pay for 200Mbps ISP, and I have mesh Wi-Fi throughout the house.

Your 200Mbps is overkill, but when you find a good solution, best not to mess with it! I have 150 but with an ethernet connection to my streaming box. I'm sure I could downgrade to 85 or even lower and still have perfect functioning. We only watch the TV on the wired connection, so zero signal issues after the modem...
