Hey, anyone have a list of cable channels and the streaming locations to get the same programming? That would be a great list. . and helpful for the future chord cutters, and all around financial comparison types. .

Any takers?

You mean like Suppose.tv? That's what I used when I was comparing the different streaming services.

[laboutj]

And when I put in my zip code, 32163, Hulu plus live tv comes in at $70/month. Youtube TV, which I have, is $73/month. Fubo is $89, XFinity is $96 and Spectrum is $123.

When I started with YTTV it was $45/month and included NESN. Those days are long gone.

LOL! well maybe, since I haven't spent any time doing this, and I haven't looked at this site before, so maybe. . .

suppose.tv is a good site to use.

You will probably find that HuluLive (HL) and YouTubeTV YTTV) services are the closest you can get to cable service. Each has advantages. This month we switched away from HL due to some performance issues we were seeing (YMMV).

For movies and exclusive series you will want to look at Netflix.

We have found a lot to watch on Peacock.

You can subscribe to Disney+, Max (was HBO), and Showtime a la carte or as addons to either HL or YTTV to consolidate billing.

I have Hulu + live. It's very good with endless shows to watch. The price is $70 plus tax and some fee so I end up with $79.30 per month.

My internet is Quantum fiber's fastest speed at $70 per month.

I have YTTV for most major cable networks so I can recod and watch. I supplement with omnivision.us @ $365 per year for almost any sporting event including NESN and most, maybe all, of the regional broadcasts even though I am not in their market area. The one drawback is I cannot record although that may be a capability in the future.

Amazon gives you access to a lot more content

There are differences that Suppose.tv do not mention that may affect your decision.

I use tv.youtube primarily because it is great for mobile devices so take advantage of the free trials. Downside of TV.youtube is that it doesn't have any of the A&E channels.

Yes! That would be very helpful. My husband and I are interested.
Thanks

This is great as we are moving to TV this fall and of course this is our list of things to inquire about.

Suppose.tv does tell you that A&E is not available on YouTubeTV.

Suppose.tv doesn't tell you about the company policies that might matter to you. For example, it doesn't tell you about bundling and pricing on HuluLive. Different companies may have different policies on pausing or canceling that could affect you. For that information you would have to go to the company itself but at least suppose.tv tells you which companies to look into.

The one thing that suppose.tv doesn't show is exclusive programming and features that might make a difference. For example, Hulu has an extensive library of old television series that YouTube does not have. Hulu has some exclusive series like The Bear that we like to watch. Building the most cost effective package for you that contains all the shows you want to see is a bit more difficult than just using suppose.tv, but at least it's a start.

Best Streaming Services for 2023: Every Option Explained

ShareReviews.com

It allows you to filter for 20 streaming networks. You can filter for genres, year of release, and other things which is great.

You can also rate and review titles. You can add friends and family so you can see what their recommendations are.

My favorite part of the website is that you can create a watchlist. Once I have 10+ titles for a streaming network, then I subscribe to it. So one month I'll have Hulu, another month Apple tv, etc. Whatever my watchlist points me to.

The site also has sections for restaurants, vacation spots, and golf courses to keep track of everything you watch and the places you go.

This is great information, thank you. Just for clarification, are you saying you can subscribe to one streaming service, then cancel and sign up for another on a monthly basis? I just assumed that many streaming services had set terms for how long you must keep them.
