DirecTV Stream vs. Hulu vs. Sling TV vs. YouTube TV vs. FuboTV vs. Philo – CNET

David Katzmaier/CNET Deciding to cut the cable TV cord doesn’t mean you have to give up your favorite channels. You can stream them live, including sports like the NFL and MLB, as well as live news from CNN, Fox News, MSNBC or your local TV station. One way to watch live shows without cable is to connect an antenna, but your channel selection will be relatively small. If you want more options you should check out a live TV streaming service. They deliver numerous familiar live channels, features like cloud DVRs and the ability to watch not only on TVs but also on phones, tablets and computers — all with no cable box or contract required. Six major services are available today: AT&T’s DirecTV Stream (formerly AT&T TV, AT&T TV Now and DirecTV Now), Google’s YouTube TV, Disney’s Hulu Plus Live TV, Dish Network’s Sling TV, FuboTV and Philo. Our full live-TV streaming guide has all the details about prices and features of the various services, but really, it’s all about the channels.Read more: NFL 2021 streaming: How to watch football without cable Now playing: Watch this: Live TV streaming services for cord cutters: How to choose… 2:44 The big chart: Top 100 channels compared (updated Sept. 7, 2021) The main difference…
