The options "seem" to save a few dollars over the Xfinity pricing.
Internet around $50-$70/month....Youtube TV $70/month......maybe another $10 for whatever might not be available on Youtube TV and other free streaming apps.
Winding up at approximately $140/month.
What I dislike thus far about the options is the fact that there is no one place to get all we would like. And the no one place availability affects how we like to "program" recording/watch later. Also the hunting and pecking from app to app to sort out what to watch where. and so on.
So for me at this point the convenience (of Xfinity) has a price.....and I am leaning toward staying with Xfinity. We have been with them for the past 18 years.....internet and broadcast interruptions over the period....almost none. Technical quality, no complaints.
Dealing with customer service requires patience. Pricing negotiations from time to time.
But conveniently packaged and accessible.
However, still looking at options to try to save a few dollars.
The convenience factor is weighing heavily!

I agree. That is why I have stayed with Xfinity.
I would choose Roku over Apple TV.
