I've been using YouTubeTV for a year instead of cable TV or satellite TV. I love it because:
- Has all the local channels
- Has all the other channels typically found on cable TV
- Unlimited recording capability that's easy to use
- Can put on all the TVs in the house for nothing extra
- Can use from other locations on the one account (great for snowbirds)
- Can let family members in save viewing area use same account
- $65 / month with no contract
- Installation is very easy -- modern TVs probably include the app. Older TVs need a Amazon firestick or Roku which is a one time purchase for less than $40. It's just an app, so there's no other hardware or cables.
- Extra channel options for a price similar to what cable TV offers
Note that you still need internet capability from any provider you choose.
