Mad-Dogg 03/05/25 6:15:24 PM #6:	Not really. There is a youtube TV account managed under my name because certain members of my family loves their NBA+NFL+MLB (the NBA and NFL in particular know just how much power they wield over the general united states population and thus it is set up in a way where it is impossible to get the NFL and NBA in one convenient app type place. Cable providers know this also and thus why its set up the way it is. Something like youtube TV (or hulu's equivalent, which is basically the exact same price) is the only way that guarantees maximum coverage for all the sports balls both major and local, and youtube TV has currently the best DVR out of all these type of services). Even on the cheapest streaming cable option sling requires a sportsball enjoyer to get both the blue half and the orange half since NFL and NBA related things (for stuff like the league games, local games etc) is perfectly split down the middle ensuring people will be getting both halves and thus prices creeping up on what youtube TV and hulu live charges anyway. Only sports fans of just like say, MLB, soccer, or NHL have a easier time making due with something like just espn+ plus like a antennae for local sports games or something like that. But yeah, the fam gives me money to have youtube TV running under my g oogle account. Personally I only ever use it to watch like, a hour or 2 of toonami on saturdays, but this is in no way mandatory since the kind of things that is playing on toonami I already seen years ago in other places, and most of the toonami original series they come up with his ass with stuff like the shenmue anime being the exception. --- GTag:MadDogg730 PSN:lMadDogg NNID:xMadDoggx NS friend code:5313-0564-0819 Go buy cyber shadow like right now. <cite>Mad-Dogg posted [p:984262126] in Do you wat...

archizzy 03/05/25 6:18:36 PM #7:	Cocytus posted... Still got cable. Wow Im old. But seriously for all the complaining I love cable tv. If I want to jump from HBO, Starz, Showtime, to ESPN or Paramount or whatever channel its one click of a button and a split second later Im there. No log in, no signing in and launching a different app. No delay, no hassle, no bullshit. I realize there are services out there that put multiple things and packages under one thing to make it easier but I still find it far more annoying than cable. When I stream at work I hate fucking around with all the individual logins and different apps. I love cable. The biggest complaint about cable was price and commercials and Im fine with what I pay considering all I get. I record the shows on my DVR and skip commercials and there are none on movie channels. As for live sports youre watching commercials and having pauses no matter what.

Well I have a massive tv package. Its all special movie channels like HBO, Starz, Showtime, sports package, highest tier available. It comes with like a few hundred channels. I get like multiple discovery, history channels that I love. I have multiple DVRs. Just an absolute ton of stuff I use. Its all one big bill with my Internet and my landline phone as well. The cable tv part of my bill is roughly $250 a month total. To me its pretty reasonable though Im sure CE would disagree. But my tv is on all the time when Im not working or sleeping. If I trimmed some of the extras like just the 3 movie channels I could still have a robust tv package in the high $100 range with close to 200 channels The other benefit is since I pay for cable I still have access to the app/streaming by just logging in with my cable provider so its not like I can only watch HBO live. I can still launch the app and binge a show if I want. Or I can do it right through my cable box with the on demand service which is like using an app but just accessing the content right through the cable box. For as big a part of my life that tv is Im fine with the price. Though again Im sure many on CE would balk at that. --- PSN ID: sled_dogs76 60" Pioneer Kuro Elite PRO151FD, Yamaha RX-V3900 A/V Receiver, Oppo DV983-H player.
