YouTube TV and Disney battle

[BotchedLobotomy]

These streaming services learned nothing from the past. First cable TV priced out most of their customers, then satellite priced out most of their customers, and now streaming services are pricing out most of their customers.

Content providers are just as guilty. Their entire business model is to get as many people to watch their content as they can, but yet they follow the same path of pricing out their viewers.

Is it better to have one million people watching at $10 person or 100,000 people watching at $100 per person?

Get outside and enjoy nature. It’s better for you. We all need to do more of that.

I hate how fragmented everything is now and spread across tv apps. It was so much easier to just pay a cable bill.

I will be cancelling youtube TV after this season is finished. I pay for Sunday Ticket and find mental peace by not watching. Tonight’s game is better off being followed on a score tracker. I’ll go out and enjoy myself instead.

There is no contract with DIRECTV streaming. You get a discount on the first month and then the price goes up but that’s well spelled out when you pick the package you want. It is the most expensive streaming option out there I believe.

Directv has nice discount for new customers. First 3 months and max showtime/Paramount included for first 3 months. First month pay 73 total. Max I will pay for the next 2 years after the first 3 months, is 100 buck locked in for 2 years with more channels and 4k included. Unlike you tubtv you had to add 9.99 per month. Basically paying the same for directtv that I pay for YouTube, but locked in for 2 years at the price, but can cancel anytime. Once youtube settles this, you know when Jan comes the price is going up. Done with YouTube for the next 2 years or ever. Glade I never bought the Sunday ticket.

I don’t have YTTV. Do you have a dish to get DirecTV?

 

[Desperado]

which one did you get? I ordered a Mohu Leaf Plus - no clue if I did a good thing or not.

The new antenna seems to work.

No.just app. No satellite any more.

 

[Rockport]

No.just app. No satellite any more.

I seriously doubt you’re locked in for 2 years. If you are, you have a contract.

The price is gaureenteed. I can cancel anytime. Why dont you check out the promotion yourself if you have doubt. Pretty simple.

I did check and for DirecTV streaming you cannot get a 2 year price guarantee. You only get that if you have DirecTV dish and you’re on a contract. You can cancel anytime, but you’ll pay an early termination fee.

You're not my mom!

Just rent the game on Sling/Prime.

Dont pay any of these jokers. Its America's Team and they're on antenna TV 75% of the time.

Buy a good antenna, find the best signal and let all those streaming services pound salt.

Whatever games you dont get just use the free streaming sites .

Disney is hemorrhaging subscribers in record numbers.......

Show me a good one to get they never work

If you’ve tried more than one tv antenna and they didn’t work, the problem is not the antenna it’s you. Just saying.

I was thinking the same thing..except we use the DVR feature heavily. Prolly could get a stand alone...and ANOTHER device goes in the rack? Hmmm. Will have to think about it.

I have $56 off per month for the first 24 months. 25 off the first month and 10 dollars off for the first three months. Put in your zip code and see. That is what I am talking about guarantee. I repeat No contract. This is Directv streaming promotion for me.
