Splain' please.
Aren't you in Concord? Does the coverage go that far?
I would disagree. Sling is Awesome for me! Easy to use...And I get 85% of what you have listed...And I only pay $26 a month!

Lets hear more. Discuss what you do and don't like about each. It looks like sling or direct now are my only options at this point.
Back to life. youtube tv now services the Asheville area so I signed up for the trial. So far it's not so easy to navigate but if the DVR works as advertised I think it'll be good.
The slingtv is easy to navigate but I have yet to have a dvd'd show run through without locking up.

I'm up to $32 a month on Sling. The Mrs. wanted Hallmark channel....So for $5 I got the package that has Hallmark, Hallmark movies, DIY, VH1, and a couple more channels. I'm still really happy with sling.

It's not a buffering problem, the show gets an error code and stops and restarting doesn't help.
I'm talking about the slingtv here, not youtube.

I signed up today- while the ABC, CBS etc are local, not all are live TV -at least for us. ABC11 and WRAL are live, Fox and CBS are not. But, I signed up for DirecTv NOW yesterday and there aren't any live locals, seems my "device location" doesn't match my billing location so the locals don't show at all...and with YT TV, I was able to cast to the Roku easily, unlike the DTVN app in Roku which didn't have the same menu as on my laptop.
For me, it's a no-brainer since they're basically the same cost- easier for the Mrs means easier on me since I'm pushing to cut DTv off completely.

I gotta dig into this. My rub is my ISP...which is my cable provider (and having a teen daughter that would just DIE without all this.)
High speed net is $40 *with* cable package. $75 *without* cable package.
You gotta have the "premium" cable package (like 100+ plus channels plus all those music channels) to get the $40 net rate. Total $120.
Basic cable (like 25 channels) + high speed is $100 (and I have to turn in my "free" DVR to "go to basic".)
Youtube + high speed = $105
Bastards. The lot 'o them. Sweet Irish 'o Christ!
The real rub is, I personally, watch about 3 hours a week of TV from November to March. Walking Dead and Duke basketball.
