Don't know if they are still doing it, but when we had YouTube TV about a year ago, the major networks (CBS, ABC and NBC) would block our DVR recordings on some prime time shows and only allow you to watch the "on demand" version. With "on demand", you cannot FF through the commercials. That was the deal breaker for me. Otherwise, it was a good service, but now the price has gone from $35 to $50 a month in a very short time. And you can't play YouTube TV on a Amazon Fire device, which has Alexa voice remote.
PS Vue is a better choice IMO, and their Core plan is on sale for $39.99 till May 6.
