Your post said that you considered YouTubeTV, internet, and landline but could not see a price savings over what you are currently paying. I replied with how I am paying significantly less than what you claimed you were considering. You never said that YouTubeTV didn’t offer the channels you need.

Regarding bandwidth, unless you are doing file serving or moving around large tarballs with ftp or another protocol, like I used to, bandwidth above 20 megabits per second is likely to have no advantage. If you want to stream 4K to two sets at the same time then 40 megabits per second would be required. I currently have about 10x the bandwidth that I use under the worst case scenario. Most people have no idea what their actual bandwidth requirements are and just assume more will yield some tangible advantage.
